SeaCube Cold Solutions (SCS), part of SeaCube Container Leasing, has announced a new partnership with The Wonderful Company to establish a refrigerated container depot in Shafter, California. The facility will support SCS’s reefer storage, maintenance, and repair operations in the region.
The Shafter depot will act as SCS’s primary location in California, extending its cold chain logistics coverage throughout the state’s Central Valley and within a 250-mile radius, including parts of Arizona and Nevada. According to the company, this site represents a strategic investment in infrastructure aimed at supporting a growing customer base.
SCS, backed by over 30 years of experience through SeaCube Container Leasing, will use the Shafter facility as a hub for both storage and service of refrigerated containers. The depot’s location within a less congested logistics park offers access to key transportation routes leading to the Los Angeles basin and neighboring states. SCS is currently the only reefer operation at this site.
“Partnering with The Wonderful Company at the Shafter depot marks a significant step in strengthening our presence in a key logistics corridor,” said James Armstrong, Senior Vice President of SeaCube Cold Solutions.
“SeaCube’s portable cold storage solution offers tremendous flexibility during seasonal market fluctuations. We are pleased to have their support and involvement in the Wonderful Logistics Center,” said Sepehr Matinifar, Vice President of Logistic Services at the Wonderful Company.
