- It is the main factor which affects the freshness
of food and green vegetables. It is being kept at
-25 degree Celsius to keep the edibles frozen to
be used in future. - Humidity -
- Humidity sensors are being used to control the
humidity. It is also a very important factor
which helps in the decaying process of food as
early as possible which is not favorable.
Therefore it is also being controlled for keeping
the edibles fresh for a long period of time.

5Processes of Cold supply chain logistics

the materials and equipment, materials for secure
storage and products transportation, and
processes for program management, safe
distribution, and usage of the products. - Production phase - This phase manages the storage
of products in cold storage where the products
are arranged in different segments. The storage
is dependent on the quantity of the product,
duration to store the product and the temperature
required. The widely used cold storages are
icepack freezers, cold rooms, and others. - Consumer phase - This is the phase where
transportation is done, and the transportation
vehicles are maintained with the temperature that
prevents any damage to the product. The
transportation vehicles reach wholesalers,
