The cloud-based cold chain management market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $9.12 billion in 2024 to $11.52 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.3%. The growth in the historic period was driven by the increasing need for real-time monitoring, rapid urbanization, innovations in the food and beverage industry, the expansion of e-commerce, and rising trade agreements between nations.
The cloud-based cold chain management market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $29.11 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.1%. The forecast period's growth is expected to be fueled by the increasing demand for high-quality food, rising hygiene standards, growing demand for processed food, the expansion of organized retail in emerging markets, and increased IT investments in cold chain logistics. Key trends anticipated include advancements in AI and machine learning for cold chain management, the adoption of blockchain for secure and tamper-proof supply chain records, the evolution of cloud-based solutions, and innovations in IoT-enabled sensors for real-time tracking.
The growing demand for perishable goods is expected to drive the growth of the cloud-based cold chain management market. Perishable goods, such as food and pharmaceuticals, are items that spoil, decay, or deteriorate quickly and require precise storage conditions to maintain their quality and safety. This demand is fueled by the increasing consumer preference for fresh, natural, and minimally processed foods, as well as the rising need for temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals. As health-conscious lifestyles become more prevalent, consumers are opting for organic produce, dairy products, seafood, and ready-to-eat meals, all of which require strict cold chain management to maintain their freshness and quality. Cloud-based cold chain management is vital in this process, providing real-time monitoring, enhanced efficiency, and reduced spoilage throughout the supply chain. For example, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reported that global fruit and vegetable production increased by 1% in 2022, reaching a total of 2.1 billion tons. Therefore, the rising demand for perishable goods is propelling the growth of the cloud-based cold chain management market.
Leading companies in the cloud-based cold chain management market are developing advanced technologies, such as AI-based cold chain logistics marketplaces, to optimize route planning, improve real-time temperature monitoring, and automate logistics operations. An AI-based cold chain logistics marketplace uses artificial intelligence to manage, optimize, and monitor temperature-sensitive goods during transportation and storage. For instance, in February 2025, Elixia Inc., an India-based technology company, launched Elixia Connect, a cold chain logistics marketplace that streamlines the transportation of temperature-sensitive goods such as pharmaceuticals, fresh produce, dairy, and confectionery. The platform connects shippers and transporters, offering on-demand, temperature-controlled vehicle placement, real-time tracking, automated temperature monitoring, and AI-driven route optimization.
In March 2025, Cold Chain Technologies, a Lebanon-based provider of advanced thermal packaging and digital monitoring solutions, acquired Global Cold Chain Solutions for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition allows Cold Chain Technologies to expand its global reach by leveraging Global Cold Chain Solutions' established network and expertise in temperature-sensitive product transportation and storage. This move enhances Cold Chain Technologies' ability to deliver innovative and reliable cold chain solutions across industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, and biotechnology. Global Cold Chain Solutions is an Australia-based provider of passive cold chain solutions.
