The European Cold Storage and Logistics Association (ECSLA) and the Refrigerated Warehouse & Transport Association of Australia (RWTA) also nominated members to the IARW board.
Members of the Refrigerated Warehouse & Transport Association (RWTA) typically have in excess of 1 billion pounds of refrigerated foodstuffs in their stores, and are transporting 50 million pounds at any given time.
This has come as a result of the RWTA having taken a leading role in the national body formed to oversee compliance with the industry code of practice covering the Handling, Storage and Transport of Prepackaged Frozen Food, Ice Cream and Chilled Foods.
