India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and offers immense potential for the cold chain industry. The government has enabled growth by taking many steps in this direction – promoting cold chain infrastructure by encouraging adoption of environmentally responsible and energy efficient technologies, while also enabling skill development to support the industry.
Emerson received overwhelming response from the key Industry stakeholders for its First Cold Chain Center located at Chakan, Pune. Encouraged by this success Emerson opened its new Cold Chain Center at Gurgaon to be close to its customers in North India.
