“ The congenial atmosphere and close nature of the IARW association is one that really fosters lifetime relationships” explained Datex CEO Michael Armanious.
With the expansion of meal kits, subscription services, and shift to D2C e-commerce that started during the COVID-19 pandemic, cold storage warehouse operators are intently focused on the competitive, expanding industry. The complexity of handling and storing perishable and regulated goods including food and pharmaceuticals presents unique challenges to refrigerated and cold storage warehouse operators. Changing consumer expectations, changes to refrigerated distribution as well as to transportation and logistics have led to increased need for collaboration and problem solving in the cold chain logistics industry.
A membership organization representing the third-party logistics temperature-controlled warehouse industry, the International Association of Refrigerated Warehouses (IARW) was founded in 1891 to help deal with the complex challenges of dealing with perishable foods. The IARW promotes best practices in temperature-controlled logistics and warehousing and advocates for its membership on legislative and regulatory issues.
“The IARW Convention provides an ideal opportunity for us to meet face-to-face with our clients in the cold storage industry as well as with other problem solvers and new friends. The congenial atmosphere and close nature of the association is one that really fosters lifetime relationships” explained Datex CEO Michael Armanious.
