Florida Freezer

What Florida Freezer does

Florida Freezer is a family-owned, third-party logistics (3PL) provider specializing in cold chain storage and distribution, headquartered at 7952 Interstate Court, North Fort Myers, Florida. Founded in 1988 through acquisition of the original North Fort Myers cold storage facility (which had opened in 1986), the company has operated for over 35 years under the tagline "Chillin' Since 1988" and claims more than 50 years of combined parent-company experience across transportation and warehousing. The legal entity is Florida Freezer Limited Partnership, a Florida limited partnership.

The company's core offering is temperature-controlled warehousing across multiple Florida sites — North Fort Myers (1.6 million cubic feet, -20°F to ambient) and Miami (2,040,000 cubic feet, opened September 2021) — supplemented by a dry warehouse in Lakeland (added 2016) and a cross-docking operation in Sunrise (2010). Pending expansions include an additional 2.4 million cubic feet of frozen warehouse space and an 8-bay cross-dock at North Fort Myers, plus U.S. Customs Bond/Free Trade Zone status and USDA inspection services at Miami. Services include multi-temperature storage (freezer, cooler, dry), real-time temperature monitoring with 24/7 alerts, case picking, each picking, e-commerce fulfillment, overnight shipping, repackaging, returns processing, white glove delivery, lift gate delivery, direct store delivery, and rail transloading via affiliated Seminole Gulf Railway. Refrigerated trucking is delivered through commonly owned affiliate FLGO Freight (operating since 1994).

Florida Freezer targets a horizontal customer base spanning food and beverage producers/distributors/meal-kit companies (primary), medical/pharmaceutical, cosmetics/personal care, and industrial clients (plastics, lumber, chemicals, aggregates). The company is a member of Global Cold Chain Alliance (GCCA), the World Food Logistics Organization (WFLO), the International Association of Refrigerated Warehouses (IARW), and The World Group — the last providing access to 50+ refrigerated warehouses with 257 million cubic feet of combined capacity across the US, Canada, and Mexico. Go-to-market is sales-led with named senior executives (President Robert Fay; VP Sales Dan Noyes; SVP Marketing & Sales Daniel N. Noyes Sr.). Pricing is quote-based, customized per client, and structured around multi-year contracts; no public pricing is disclosed. Revenue is not publicly reported.
