RSA Cold Chain (RCC) is the newest venture of multi-award winning third-party logistics provider RSA Logistics, based in Dubai South.
RCC, which will house a total capacity of 21,000 pallets, will start phase 1 of its operations in March 2017, offering an initial capacity of 10,800 pallets, coupled with sophisticated, end-to-end 3PL services for packaged food, fresh fruit and vegetables, dairy products, and frozen food. The warehouse will be comprised of 8 independent chambers, and with a unique ammonia-based chilling system, each chamber will accommodate temperatures as low as -25 degrees. With global temperatures on the rise, coupled with the burgeoning demand for food products due to a welling population, there is a critical need for reliable cold storage solutions, particularly here in the UAE. The brand new entity was conceived to meet these needs, particularly in the lead up to Expo 2020 when Dubai will see a spike in its resident and work force populations.
The site for the new facility is strategically located just outside the bonded zone in Dubai South to maximize ease of access and minimize time lags in movements of the food products. RCC will also provide temperature controlled transportation, providing a holistic solution that meets the stringent compliance requirements for food storage and transportation, while focusing on quality and scalability.
RSA Logistics recently announced that it has expanded its operations to Dubai Investments Park (DIP) with a new warehousing facility strategically located within the DIP complex to serve customers with faster distribution in the local markets.
The new facility will add to RSA Logistics’ existing contract logistics capability and complements established facilities in Dubai South and Jebal Ali. The warehouse, which spreads across 2500 sqm with a total capacity of 2500 pallets, is designed to store general cargo and handle a diverse range of product categories including fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) and beauty products. It will offer an extensive range of value added services such as distribution, cross-docking, and ecommerce to meet diverse customer requirements with international standards.
The facility is strategically located to take advantage of the modern transport infrastructure, with easy access to both Jebel Ali port and Al Maktoum International Airport.
