What Coldstore Gdansk does

Coldstore Gdańsk is a port-anchored cold storage and logistics facility operated by Północnoatlantycka Organizacja Producentów Sp. z o.o. (PAOP), a private limited liability company registered in Warsaw, Poland. The facility is sited at ul. Przemysłowa 28 within the Free Customs Zone at the Port of Gdańsk, with a dedicated quay for cooperating fishing and transport vessels and two container terminals within a 5 km radius offering direct services to Asia, Africa, and Western Europe. Capacity stands at approximately 30,000 pallet places distributed across 4 independent cold storage chambers on 5 levels of movable high-bay racking, with continuous temperature monitoring (96 measurements per day) down to -25°C and WMS-based full traceability via unique SSCC barcodes for each pallet.

The core offering combines temperature-controlled warehousing, cross-docking for reefer containers, vessels, trucks, and cargo trains, and Value Added Logistics (cargo consolidation/deconsolidation). Primary customers are fishing companies, fish processors, and seafood distributors requiring cold-chain integrity and NAFO/NEAFC-compliant landings; secondary customers are import/export operators and container logistics providers leveraging the Customs Free Zone and TEN-T connectivity. The facility is the first port cold store in Poland certified to BRCGS Storage & Distribution and holds ISO 9001, IFS Logistics, MSC/ASC Chain of Custody, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and SMETA certifications.

The business model is enterprise B2B with custom quote-based pricing under multi-year contracts. There is no publicly disclosed pricing, no funding history, no external investment, and no parent company indicated in available sources. Revenue is generated through three streams: recurring storage fees, transactional cargo handling, and professional services for value-added logistics. GTM is direct enterprise field sales supported by a multi-language corporate website and direct email/phone contact channels; no app, API, or digital self-service platform exists.

Direct peers

• NewCold: European-headquartered automated cold storage operator specializing in port-located, energy-efficient deep-frozen facilities serving food producers and retailers. Highly comparable to Coldstore Gdańsk in port-based temperature-controlled warehousing, though typically at larger and more automated scale.
• Lineage Logistics: World's largest temperature-controlled warehousing and logistics company with a dense European port-centric network, including reefer container handling and seafood cold chain services. Directly comparable in cold storage core offering, with significantly broader geographic and service-line coverage.
• Eurofrigo: European cold storage specialist operating port-located temperature-controlled warehouses in the Netherlands and other key European ports, with focus on food products and value-added logistics. Closely comparable in port-based, multi-chamber cold storage serving seafood and food customers.

Regional players

• PEKA (Polish food logistics): Poland-based deep-frozen food logistics and cold storage provider serving domestic retail and HoReCa customers. Comparable in refrigerated warehousing, but Poland-domestic rather than port-export focused like Coldstore Gdańsk.

Broad incumbents

• Americold Realty Trust: Publicly-traded REIT operating one of the largest global cold storage portfolios across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and South America, serving food producers, retailers, and logistics providers. Comparable in temperature-controlled warehousing core; far larger and broader portfolio than Coldstore Gdańsk's single-site model.
• DHL Global Forwarding (Cold Chain): Global logistics provider with cold chain warehousing and reefer container services across Europe, including partnerships with major container terminals. Comparable temperature-controlled storage and cross-docking capabilities, though embedded in a broader forwarding business.
• Nichirei Logistics Group: Japan-headquartered global cold chain operator with significant European presence in refrigerated warehousing, distribution, and seafood handling. Comparable in cold storage operations and seafood vertical focus; a much larger multi-region incumbent.
• HAVI Logistics: Global supply chain specialist focused on temperature-controlled food logistics for major foodservice and retail brands, operating cold storage facilities across Europe. Comparable in cold chain operations serving food customers with strong certification emphasis.
• Kuehne+Nagel (Cold Chain): Global logistics giant with a dedicated cold chain offering spanning refrigerated warehousing, reefer forwarding, and pharma/food compliance. Overlaps with Coldstore Gdańsk's cold storage and reefer services but as a much broader portfolio.

Others

• PCC Intermodal: Operator of intermodal container terminals in Poland and Germany with reefer container handling capability, connecting Polish/European trade flows. Adjacent peer — comparable port infrastructure context but focused on intermodal container logistics rather than temperature-controlled storage.
