NORDFROST GmbH & Co. KG
NORDFROST, based in Schortens near Wilhelmshaven, is a logistics provider for all types of goods and the market leader in deep-freeze logistics. The family-run business has 2,200 employees and 40 deep-freeze storage locations throughout Germany with a current capacity of roughly one million pallet spaces. They form the basis of a nationwide groupage network for the fine distribution of frozen goods. NORDFROST dispatches 1,600 trucks every day. Within the scope of supply chain management, NORDFROST provides individual, holistic solutions for warehousing, transport as well as trade and seaport logistics to industrial customers, wholesalers, retailers and import/export businesses. The focus of NORDFROST’s seaport logistics is currently on Wilhelmshaven. The NORDFROST Seaport Terminal is situated in Germany’s only deep-water container port and provides customised logistics concepts for frozen and fresh goods, non-refrigerated food, promotional items and heavy cargo.
NORDFROST also offers these services at its port in Wesel. The container terminal grants NORDFROST direct access to the ARA ports, thereby enabling a seamless connection to overseas transport services. This environmentally friendly transport route along the Rhine is known as the Cool Corridor. Use of inland waterway transport systems helps protect the natural environment and minimise road transport movements. Additional traffic generation is avoided by combining all relevant services at just one location with water-side access. Cargo container handling services for continuous import and export activities were launched in 2021. Opening of the cold store directly at the container terminal in summer 2024 will ensure further work areas for individual value-added services in addition to the storage of temperature-controlled goods.
