Four issues continue to stifle the industry’s growth and development

This is AI generated summarization, which may have errors. For context, always refer to the full article.Invited at the Monday Circle Financial Forum to speak on the state of the cold chain industry, Anthony S. Dizon, the incumbent president of the Cold Chain Association of the Philippines , bared an eye-opening talk on the challenges affecting the industry.

Currently, “the aggregate holding capacity of cold chains in the country stands at approximately 700,000 pallets, equivalent to 600,000 metric tons.” Salceda said he would invite Dizon and his group to a congressional hearing he will be calling “to address the challenges associated with the cold chain industry in alignment with the present government’s commitment to ensuring food security.”

Because of this, “the industry does not have an updated supply and demand data to support proper planning and development,” Dizon added. In turn, Dizon has these several suggestions: Government should provide assistance in the “development of an integrated data network to supply accurate information on production volumes, seasonality schedules etc. to enable better resource and operations planning.”
