The report titled South Korea Cold Chain Market Outlook to 2023 – By Cold Storage (Ambient, Chilled and Frozen Warehousing) and Cold Transport (Land, Sea, and Air), By Application (Dairy Products, Fruits and Vegetables, Meat and Seafood, Pharmaceuticals and Others) and By Ownership (Integrated and Third-Party Logistics) believe that the cold chain market in South Korea will witness a positive CAGR of 13.6% in terms of revenue during the forecasted period 2018-2023E, owing to growth in international trade of perishable foods, technological advancements in refrigerated storage & transport, government support for infrastructure development of the cold chain industry and increasing need for medicines owing to the aging population of South Korea.

Increasing Demand for Temperature-Sensitive Products: The increase in demand for perishable food products and rising imports of food items such as meat and seafood, fruits and vegetables due to the rising disposable income and retail spending of the people in the country will necessitate the requirement of cold transport facilities in order to transport goods to the storage warehouses and then finally to the end-users, thus augmenting the growth of cold transport industry in the country.

Hypermarket chains have been the largest shopping channels, since they provide competitive prices on foods and household products, while also offering private label products. Currently, E-mart, Homeplus, Lotte Mart and Costco Wholesale Korea Ltd are South Korea’s leading hypermarket chains. As the number of women in workplaces is increasing, the demand for processed and frozen foods has also risen, which has positively impacted the cold chain market of South Korea.
