Frimosa transfers its cold storage operations in Uruguay to Emergent Cold LatAm


Frigorífico Modelo S.A. (Frimosa) announces that it has completed the transfer of its cold storage operations in Montevideo to Emergent Cold Latin America (Emergent Cold LatAm), a company recognized for its leadership in logistics and cold chain services in Latin America. The transaction included the transfer of the logistics center located in Polo Oeste, a facility with capacity for 22,000 pallet positions.

Additionally, as part of the agreement, Emergent Cold LatAm temporarily leased a second Frimosa facility located in downtown Montevideo, while developing a planned expansion of the main complex. This strategic decision allows Frimosa to focus its resources on other key areas of its business, while ensuring that its logistics operations remain in the hands of an operator with international experience and regional reach. The transaction is part of a broader collaboration between the two companies, which previously worked together on the transfer of operations in Paraguay, which included a modern warehouse with capacity for 8,400 pallets and room for future expansion.

Frimosa thanks its customers, collaborators, and partners for the trust they have placed in us over the years and reaffirms its commitment to the development of the food industry in the region. We are confident that Emergent Cold LatAm will continue to provide excellent service, expanding logistics capabilities, and adding value to the entire cold chain in the Southern Cone.
