The frozen and refrigerated foods industry is evolving quickly, shaped by consumer demand for freshness, technology-driven efficiency, and increased supply chain visibility. As we continue expanding Taylor’s cold storage capabilities, joining the National Frozen & Refrigerated Foods Association (NFRA) and the Frozen & Refrigerated Association of the Northeast (FRANE) is an intentional move to stay connected to the pulse of this transformation.
The Value of Collective Insight
NFRA represents a nationwide network of leaders across frozen and refrigerated foods, bringing together retailers, brands, distributors, and logistics providers to share data and perspectives that shape the direction of the industry. FRANE complements this mission with a regional focus in the Northeast, supporting collaboration among companies involved in food production, handling, and storage.
Membership in these associations creates space for collaboration, not just conversation. It allows us to engage in discussions around advancements in cold chain logistics, sustainability, food safety, and the technologies that make refrigerated supply chains stronger and more efficient.
Cold Storage That Connects Technology and Reliability
Our Maine International Cold Storage Facility (MICSF) in Portland, Maine, reflects the type of innovation that these associations promote. The 106,000-square-foot multi-temperature facility supports frozen, refrigerated, and ambient environments while offering real-time inventory visibility through our customer portal.
MICSF was designed to meet the growing need for adaptable cold storage infrastructure that supports both regional and national food distribution. Through NFRA and FRANE, we have the opportunity to align these efforts with broader industry best practices and emerging trends that keep operations efficient and customer expectations met.
Looking Ahead
Joining NFRA and FRANE provides Taylor with a stronger voice and more insight into the future of refrigerated logistics. These memberships reinforce our focus on continuous improvement, industry collaboration, and technology-driven reliability across all cold storage operations.
Partnerships like these ensure that Taylor remains part of the broader conversation shaping how frozen and refrigerated products move through the supply chain. We look forward to contributing ideas, sharing results, and continuing to build smarter cold storage solutions for our customers.
