One Frio has made its official entry into the European cold storage market. The company, founded by Aermont Capital and Orchard Capital, has emerged from seven strategic acquisitions in the Netherlands, the UK, and Ireland in recent months. These include Grolleman Coldstore, NedCool, McCulla Ireland, and Coenen Boxmeer.

As a result of the acquisitions, One Frio now has seven cold storage locations, which the company says are strategically positioned at key logistics hubs. In the coming years, the company plans to continue building a modern and future-proof European cold storage network.
Incredibly proud
CEO and co-founder Aric Adams says the company's strength lies in connection and regional expertise. "We are incredibly proud of the launch of our company and believe that the strength of cold storage lies in connecting people, markets, and knowledge." According to Adams, the goal is "a platform that combines operational excellence with regional knowledge, so that our customers can transport their products across Europe hassle-free."
Co-founder Dami Agbaje also emphasises the role of collaboration within the new platform. "Our local teams have in-depth knowledge of their markets, and by working together across regions, we are taking the industry as a whole to the next level." In addition, One Frio aims to advance its sustainability efforts. The company is working on initiatives around energy consumption, refrigeration system upgrades, and circular packaging. "Our approach is pragmatic. We are always looking at how we can improve our processes and where we can make a difference."
Essential link in the global food chain
One Frio focuses on reliable, safe, and efficient storage and logistics for customers ranging from supermarkets and food retail to international brands. The company states that it meets high standards of food safety and sustainability. Adams: "Refrigerated storage is an essential link in the global food chain. By combining local strength with international best practices, we are building a platform that delivers real value for food producers, retailers, and consumers."
One Frio's foundation lies in real estate. The company invests in, owns, and develops sites, and therefore says it has long-term control over crucial cold storage infrastructure. This should enable scalable expansion and stable capacity.
