Cold storage and warehousing
Harvests lose value quickly in the heat. We store, grade and move fresh produce so it reaches the buyer in good condition.
The same cold rooms serve our own operations and are open to other producers who need reliable storage before distribution.
Warehouse space for rent. Farmers, traders and processors can rent cold-room and warehouse space by arrangement.
What the service covers
Storage on its own, or storage with grading, stock control and delivery.
Cold storage warehousing
Space in our cold rooms, kept at the temperature the produce needs.
Fresh produce grading and pre-processing
Produce is sorted by quality and size, cleaned and prepared, so what goes into store is ready to sell or process.
Inventory management
Every lot is recorded in and out, so you know what is in store and for how long.
Last-mile delivery
We deliver from the warehouse to markets, shops and processors.
How produce moves through
From the farm gate to the buyer, the produce stays in one managed chain.

Results
We built cold storage for our own supply chain first, then opened it to other producers.
Our own cold chain, shared
The cold rooms at Bonduma Gate hold produce for our own processing lines and for farmers, traders and processors who rent space. Keeping harvests cool and graded is how we cut post-harvest losses across the chain.
What the work shows
One chain for everyone
Third-party stock goes through the same intake, grading and records as our own.
Storage beyond the grid
We are piloting solar-powered cold-chain units and mobile preservation kits for regions without reliable power.
Post-harvest pest control
Stored produce is protected with post-harvest pest-control systems we are testing in the field.
Harvests kept cool

Who uses it
Farmers and cooperatives
