2 SAFETY MEASURES FOR FIELD REPRESENTATIVES

HRG (Hansa Research Group) field representatives were provided with the below mentioned safety guidelines to be adhered to while visiting Cold Storage facilities:

Field representatives were always to follow safety instructions by the cold storage operator. If entering a cold room, the representatives were supposed to have an escort with them.

Cold stores can be subzero chambers and can create sudden thermal shock and chill to the body. If entering a cold store, do not spend too much time inside the room. Each cold store will have a supply of warm jackets as needed.

Refrigeration machines are located outside the cold rooms in open or inside a designated machine room. Stand well clear of operational machines; do not wear loose clothes like scarves that can get sucked into running fans.

CA cold stores can have very low oxygen levels - Do not enter inside a CA chamber.

Cold stores can have icy and slippery floors and usually humid. Always wear proper laced shoes for conducting this survey.

If required, wear the provided hard hat, especially in cold stores with overhead storage.

When visiting cold chambers designed for spices, wear the face mask provided at the facility to avoid inhaling strong spice aroma.

Do not enter any enclosed space without permission and then only when you are accompanied by an escort.

Follow walking zones and markings to avoid mishap with machines and working staff.

Do not touch or press any buttons or switches at the facility visited.

These facilities are primarily food zones – maintain personal hygiene when visiting cold stores. Do not conduct survey if you are suffering fever, cold or contagious disease.

If you hear any alarm, immediately evacuate to the closest exit and stand clear for the operators to function.

Return entry passes (if any) to the facility manager before leaving the location.

A ready reckoner list of cold storage equipment and component types was also provided to regional heads for reference along with related familiarization sessions.

3 INTRODUCTION

One word pithily describes the current Indian fruit and vegetable industry - Paradox. On one hand, we are one of the biggest producers of Vegetables & Fruit in the world, on the other hand, there is reported a notably large wastage of the same in the country.

Cold storages are considered as an integral component for reduction in food wastage. Realizing the significance of the same there is a strong sentiment of growth in the cold storage industry predicted by the market experts. A recent report released by ASSOCHAM claims the Indian cold chain industry, which stood at Rs 10,200 crore in 2009, is expected to register a compound annual growth rate of 25.8% to reach Rs 64,000 crore by 2017. The report also states the country’s cold storage capacity is unevenly distributed and that the country has cold chain capacity available for only 9 million tonnes vegetables, leading to huge wastage.

There have been other similar studies and reports from leading research and industry organizations where the stated cold storage capacity figures are seen in contradiction to each other. This gave rise to the need to understand the current cold storage sector, in terms of the storage capacity and the technology used. It is only after in-depth assessment of the current cold storage scenario; one would be able to tread better on the lines of improvement, process streamlining and eventually growth. This introspection was initiated in form of a full-fledged quantitative CENSUS of cold storages in India.

Along with sustained growth in food production, reports also indicate a considerable increase in the construction and expansion of cold storage facility in the recent 10 years. Steps have been taken by the government to support improved designs and standards in the storage infrastructure as well as to build additional cold storage capacity through provision of fiscal and tax incentives.

With such rapid development and growth witnessed, a primary baseline survey was conceived to help assess firsthand the current status of cold storage capacity and the technology deployed. This base line survey is the first such attempt in this sector and the learning’s from this could lead to more detailed studies subsequently.

Hansa Research Group (HRG) was deputed to conduct the All India cold storage capacity and technology survey, by the National Horticulture Board (NHB). The data collection instrument was planned as a series of questions with some close ended and open ended responses from cold storage management. Field teams were provided modern tabs with software to file Geo-tagged photographs and random voice recordings. The project approach, methodology and timelines were shared with and ratified by NHB before the commissioning and launching of the survey.

3.1.1 COLD STORAGE SECTOR: CURRENT SCENARIO

The cold storages are the nodal points in the overall cold-chain distribution network and they must cope with uneven demands across a variety of produce and cargo types and capacity need fulfillments. The cold-chain from farm to retail can comprise of a combination of the following components; source points or originating production units, temperature controlled first leg transportation, consolidation hubs or long term cold storages, environment controlled long haul transport, transshipment or distribution hubs, last mile temperature controlled distribution and retail end storage and merchandising infrastructure.

In case of cold storages, two primary types persist. The first is farm gate storage that is deployed close to producing regions for long term storage of farm produce. These storage types are typically designed for single commodity large volume storage where the produce is seasonal, with the intention to safely store the product for subsequent sale over an extended period over its marketable life. These stores are predominated by potato stores and those for spices and specific crops like carrots, apples, oranges, onions, etc. Controlled Atmosphere stores, due to their base intent of extending shelf life and maintaining freshness over the long term, also fall under this category. Produce stored in such a cold store is not intended for repetitive handling and these stores can also serve as initiating points for subsequent market links.

The second type of cold stores, are more transient in their nature of service. These are the in transit handling points or distribution hubs that feed the market and those that are at point of consumption (retail outlets), etc. The goods handled in these stores have shorter shelf life, those that have exited bulk storage, and those that are enroute to market or final consumption. Majority of horticultural crops have a limited shelf life even within the cold-chain and cannot be stored across seasons. Additionally, all products towards the end of their storage life need to transit to market through such cold-chain facilities. Such cold storage infrastructure has only recently been developed in India.

The typical stated challenges faced by cold storages are high operation costs that stem from a lack of skilled manpower, higher energy utilization, low technology adoption and seasonal capacity utilization. As nodal points and hubs in the perishable food distribution network, the impact of cold storages on the overall integrity in the distribution mechanism is important to counter food perishability and to ensure reduction in wastage. To achieve this objective, as a pre-requisite, cold storages need to deploy advanced technology, appropriate infrastructure designs and superior operational processes.

At the start of this baseline survey, it was estimated that India had about 6,100 cold stores in the country, the bulk of which were not networked and operated as standalone units, largely for storing potato. This total estimate was derived from secondary reports and database listing as available from government departments.

3.1.2 PROJECT APPROACH

The project envisaged site visits by field teams to every cold store facility in the country, specifically those that were open to public lease as a service. The project was not intended to cover cold storages built for captive use by industrial units or processing units, unless leasing out the capacity to others. The entire base line study involved collecting data in the form of responses from facility managers or owners to a prescribed questionnaire. The location was also recorded through geo-tagging of photographs (external picture of each facility visited). Some cold storage owners also permitted pictures of the inside of their infrastructure.

The project approach stemmed from the provision of a comprehensive address database of all known cold storages across India by National Horticulture Board (NHB) and through their offices from other government records. In addition to the database provided by NHB, the HRG offices additionally initiated and referred addresses from other sources which included national and local cold store associations, Agrimarket and other web based secondary data.

The main challenge to conduct such an extensive nationwide primary study in the limited time duration (4 months of field work), was to plan the efficient deployment of field teams. The project work was structured into zones covering each state or region. As a first step, each zonal level team would require accurate location addresses and establish appointments with the cold storage management.

To facilitate the study in a timely and well-coordinated manner, an inception report after the first set of pilot interviews was conceived and presented to NHB. This allowed for initial review and recommendations on the project proposal and to further refine the data collection instrument. Post the inception report and feedback from NHB, approved revisions were made to the questionnaire and a full scale collection of data was planned for all the field teams in all the states of India. It was expected that in the course of conducting the study other cold storages which are not in the collated database, may also be identified.

In ensuring the maximum coverage of all the cold storages, the field work was executed district after district in every state, using a readied database and applying snow balling technique. The responses to the queries designed with NHB, were collected from owners or managers of the cold storages conducting face to face interviews across India. Subsequent data checks involved follow ups over phone and repeat visits where needed.

The entire study was planned for completion in a 6 month period and undertaken accordingly. The time frame included familiarization sessions, pilot runs, submission and review of inception report, final sign off from NHB, full scale field work and final report preparation. But due to a compilation of much higher address database of over 8,800 as compared to original estimation of 6,100 cold stores, the draft report was submitted in 7 months. Also inception report though presented in a month’s time, the presentation meeting got delayed by a month, and based on feedback, the study was re-launched with revised questionnaire. In all, 8833 address locations were visited across India at the writing of this report.

3.1.3 METHODOLOGY

From methodology point of view, any study consists of four aspects; one is targeting and building the appropriate research query points, accessing that information/data procurement, building checks and verification on data collection, analyzing & processing procured information to the best of the knowledge/understanding.

The data procurement and checks were done by interviews with relevant people and using technology to validate the information.

An appropriate healthy mix of research approaches were utilized to create the knowledge-base:

Interview of key decision makers and experts on suitability and viability of questionnaire.

Hansa Research deployed and leveraged network of research professionals around the country for conducting field study.

Assessment of infrastructure developments based on published information from NHB, FCAOI, NABARD etc.

Regular interactions with NHB designees with online feedback mechanism of the survey status.

In the instances where appointments were not immediately available, repeat visits were made. Out of the repeat visits made, an average of 4.5 attempts was undertaken. This is more than the minimum of 3 repeat calls as per the original project proposal.

In the instances that no cold store was located at the address, a photograph of the location was recorded. In the cases where the address was not traceable, a process that included checks at the local post office, police station and municipal or other local authority was attempted before listing a database item as non-traceable.

For each touch point (database address), the responses underwent systemic checks which included random recording and geo-tagged photographs.

Wherever the cold storage unit was not providing permission for interview, NHB assistance for additional support was sought; in such cases, the facility manager required a direct communication or letter from NHB. In other cases, relevant permissions for seaports and airports were obtained from related ministries.

A web link was provided to NHB to enable daily checks of the status of the work done for enabling transparency and better coordination of efforts.

A list of the total address database was provided to NHB with the inception report for coordinating on any errors or omissions.

Despite an increase in the total expected address list, all methodology and checks were fulfilled, as detailed in the project proposal.

The, following schematic demonstrates the data procurement and validation for this study.

HANSA RESEARCH GROUP DATA PROCUREMENT AND VALIDATION PROCESS

The study did not include dedicated captive cold storage units of hotels, pharmaceutical companies, processors, abattoirs where they are not open to public as for utility. The study was intended to provide an insight into the state of cold storage sector where it is available to customers for lease or rentals.

The methodology includes photographing each cold storage location accessed and these would be uploaded to an online map. Further inputting of cold store details on each map geo-coordinate could be undertaken additionally, thereby creating a comprehensive visualization of the all India cold storage capacity.

110 GPS enabled tablets were used nationwide for collecting the responses.

4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

4.1.1 Overview

The base line survey envisaged site visits by field teams of Hansa Research Group (HRG) to every cold store facility in the country, specifically those that were open to public lease as a service. The project was not intended to cover cold storages built for captive use by industrial units or processing units, unless leasing out the capacity to others. The entire base line study involved collecting data in the form of responses from facility managers or owners to a prescribed questionnaire duly approved by NHB.

In ensuring the maximum coverage of all the cold storages, the field work was executed district after district in every state, using a readied database and applying snow balling technique. In all HRG team members visited over 9,000 address locations, as against around 6,100 envisaged earlier, at the time of writing the final report.

All data collected from the owners or managers of cold stores on a face to face interview. In the instances where appointments were not immediately available, repeat visits were made. Out of the repeat visits made, on an average 4.5 attempts were undertaken. This is more than the minimum of 3 repeat calls as per the original project proposal of HRG.

In the instances that no cold store was located at the address, a photograph of the location was recorded. In the cases where the address was not traceable, a process that included checks at the local post office, police station and municipal or other local authority was attempted before listing a database item as non-traceable.

No. of cold stores and their capacities

Thus the total created capacity visible today is 32.94 million tones. If we exclude permanently

closed and address found, but CS not found, the existing capacity is 26.85 million tones

In addition to the above, 837 addresses could not be traced from database, as the addresses

were not complete. If these are to be included in created capacity, this will be additional 4.1

million tones capacity. There are also 254 cases where the address was found, but there was no

cold storage in the address, this is already included in the permanently closed row.

In many cases we have photographs of structures of permanently closed units which have been

uploaded in geo-tagged links along with existing units

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Infrastructure of CSs

Farm Gate CSs form 68% of the cold stores. But horticulture CSs account for 75% of CSs, as there are CSs even in urban and distribution centres

Mean capacity is at 5003 tons. East zone has the highest mean capacity of 8543 tons mainly contributed by WB with 11113 tons

As the bulk of the CSs stock raw potatoes, the chamber temperature is between 0 to 100 Celsius. Frozen chambers are found more in animal husbandry CSs

While horticultural CSs stock mainly single commodities, processed food CSs and Pharma CSs, stock other products including horticultural products

74% of the CSs are having brick and mortar structures with West zone and animal husbandry CSs having comparatively more PEB structures

Upkeep of facilities

External condition of buildings, external hygiene conditions, internal road areas, internal vehicular movement are all rated good on observation. The percentages reported good are at around 70%. That means there is nearly a third which needs improvement in the above elements. These CSs are to be identified and educated on upkeep of facilities

The percentage of CSs having covered drainage is at 41%. This needs to be improved, so that hygiene of the facilities can be improved to maintain food safety standards

General layout of the facilities

The mean boundary area is 4567 Sqmts while the mean covered area is 3568 Sqmts.

Nearly a third of CSs have only ground floor while 36% have four floors in their buildings.

Mezzanine type of stacking is more prevalent in CSs and generally gunny nags are the smallest storage unit in the CS.

27% of the CSs had recent upgrades and the main reason for upgrade is to expand capacity

In terms of insulation thermocol/EPS are used as add on panels to prevent outside heat affecting the CSs. Only in animal husbandry CSs 50% have PUF panels.

58% of CSs have single gates while 36% have 2 gates. The rest have more than 2 gates

67% of CSs had uncovered parking space while the other 33% had covered parking space. On an average 22 vehicles can be parked in the CSs

Transport services were not provided by 79% of the CSs. Even those facilitated the service, mostly they used hired out services.

Only 4% provided reefer truck facilities and that too only half of them had their own reefer trucks

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Catchment area facilities and products stored Analysis of capacity utilisation of products stocked shows that the CSs generally have

enough clientele to stock the products.

Overall average capacity utilisation is 75% which shows that the CS’s catchment area is sustainable. While the average is at a good level, the CSs having lower capacity utilisation are to be identified from database and their problems need to be identified and solved so that they do not end up a defunct CS in the future

Product wise capacity utilization (given in subsequent pages) shows that Type H, Type P and Type M have over 70% utilization, while Type Q has 67% utilization

Raw potatoes is stocked by majority of horticultural CSs. Other products stocked are apples, bananas, spices, pulses, grapes, different vegetables and seeds.

Among animal husbandry CSs, sea food is stocked by bulk of CSs

In processed food CSs, main items stocked are butter and milk

In CSs stocking pharma products, vaccines are stocked by majority of CSs

Service model of CSs 75% of CSs operate on pure lease rental model. Only among animal husbandry CSs, there

are CSs operating on captive use model

As bulk of CSs operate on pure lease rental model, there is necessity for marketing support to enhance capacity utilisation, especially of those CSs whose capacity utilisation is lower

Ownership and management structure 92% of CSs are owned and operated by private sector – proprietorship, partnership, private

limited company or public limited company.

There are only 3% Cooperative and another 2% govt/PSU CSs in the list

Accessibility to infrastructure by value chain stakeholders The average distance to a highway – either national or state highway – is 4 kms for all CSs.

As transport services are not provided by 79% of CSs, logistics companies lift the stock and transport them to trading centres. The proximity to highways is facilitating this service adequately

The average distance from railways is over 10 kms. Distance to airports and seaports were higher at 45 kms and 35 kms respectively, though these are relevant for export trade.

Backend infrastructure availability Over 50% have ante rooms and over 40% have sorting and grading facilities, and pack

houses.

Analysis of CSs built post 2009 shows that there is improvement in existence of these back end infrastructure.

Importance of back end infrastructure needs to be educated to CS owners so that they can create the infrastructure. If required concessional rate of interest can be provided for the loans to facilitate the infrastructure in CSs

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Technology and equipments used in CSs Though bunker coil system is to be terminated, a third of CSs are still using bunker coil

system. In fact over 40% have refrained from answering the question as they are not sure of what system they are using.

Analysis by age wise CSs reveal that post 2009 the percentage using bunker coil system has dropped. Only in North zone, usage of bunker coil system has significantly dropped post 2009.Like wise, there is a significant drop in usage of bunker coil in horticultural and pharma CSs

Multiple systems are used in every CS to detect and fight fire in CSs. Gas based extinguishers are prevalent in majority – over 70% - of the CSs. Though technology has improved, CSs also depend on manual rounds to detect fire

UP accounts for 27% of CSs and accounts for 37% of capacity. West Bengal, though accounts for fourth in terms of no. of cold stores (9%), ranks second in capacity with 21% share in all India capacity

Average no. of chambers are 2.8 per Cs, average no of chambers are 3.6, average no. of evaporators are 4.2 and average no. of DG sets are 1.6 per CS.

Maintenance practices 32% have AMCs for their plant or gen sets. Of this 91% have AMC for plant and equipments

while 65% have AMC for gensets

Spare parts are maintained by over 70% for both refrigeration equipment and power unit

53% have periodic maintenance. 65% of CS reported 0 breakdown days. Only pharma CSs reported more than 2 breakdown days on an average in a year

Capacity utilisation and patterns In the last three years, there has been consistent average 74-75% capacity utilization of the

CSs

Overall Capacity utilization is 75%. Even in East where the average capacity is the highest, the capacity utilization is also robust at 77%

© COPYRIGHT 2014 15

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Analysis by capacity and capacity utilization also showed that even CSs with higher capacity

had over 75% capacity utilization

Though capacity utilization is robust, need to identify CSs having lower capacity utilization and arrive at problems for lower utilization and solve them so that their business prospers.

Power source and utilization On an average most CS’s get a sanctioned load OF 168 kVA.

Gujarat, Kerala, and West Bengal are states which have been sanctioned more than 200 kVA of load which is higher than the national average of 168 kVA.

Some Bigger states like Karnataka and Rajasthan have extremely low sanctioned loads which may be an area of concern for the CS’s located there.

Average energy cost per cold store has increased over the past three years from Rs 15 lakhs to 18 lakhs

The availability of grid power has also increased from 16 hours to 17 hours per day. Diesel consumption on the other hand has reduced from 18000 liters to 16000 liters

Automation in material handling While 24% are using conveyer belt for loading and unloading there is another 22% using

had pellet lifters and 18% use manual labour to load and unload products

Automatic ventilation system is available only in 21% of CSs

Only 18% of CSs have automatic system to detect gas leakage

CO2 sensors are available only in 26% of CSs

Only 23% have automation in drives

Automation in ventilation drives, CO2 sensors etc will improve efficiency of the CSs in maintaining the right temperature resulting in better product storage. Hence NHB should educate the CS owners on these automation facilities available

Product type Capacity Utilization %

Horticulture 75%

Processed food 71%

Animal Husbandry 74%

Pharma products 70%

Others 65%

© COPYRIGHT 2014 16

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Business process documentation Only 17% of CSs have business process documentation/certificate.

FSSA, HACCP and ISO are the certificates held by around 40% of those having any certification

Though HACCP and ISO certification is voluntary, FSSA is compulsory and even this certificate is not held by majority of CSs.

There is intention to have FSSA certification as it has become mandatory

NHB needs to check that FSSA certification is in place with all CSs so that upkeep of facility and hygiene of the facility will improve resulting in improved food safety for the end consumers

Subsidies availed and usage of subsidies Only 42% of CSs have availed of subsidies for their CSs

The main purpose of using the subsidy related to capacity expansion followed by training staff and modernisation of facilities

CSs are interested in availing subsidies from NHB in future as well.

Employment On an average 20 people are employed in a CS. This accounts for over 1 lakh people

employed in CSs. And on an average there are 2.5 reefer technicians in a CS.

In the last one year 33% of CSs have made their employees attend training programmes. Most of the training programmes attended were organised internally or by private companies

CSs are interested in sending their employees for training if organised by NHB

Subsidies have been used for sending people for management training as well. Thus NHB can train people and also educate at the same time about the usefulness of having backend infrastructure, adopting more modern techniques in ventilation, drives, CO2 sensors etc.

5. INFRASTRUCTURE OF CS’s

We interviewed a total of 5003 cold storages. 69% cold storages are Farm Gates. Compared to them, animal husbandry, pharma, processed food type stocking cold storages are lower in number.

A minute 1% of cold stores contacted store Pharmaceutical products but these cold storages report to have the highest mean storage capacity. They are also the older type of cold storages with an average age of 16 years. Cold storages that dwell in the Eastern zones have high average storage capacity of 8,543 MT and are relatively the oldest ones. When talking about the cooling capacity, port based infrastructures top the list. At the distant second position we have Type Q cold storages with higher cooling capacity.

Cold storages storing horticulture and animal husbandry related products predominantly store single commodities. Type P(processed) and Type Q (Pharma) cold storages are more likely to stock multiple products.

More than half of Type M cold storages have frozen chambers.

The cold storage facilities were also categorized based on the type of structure. Primarily the following types were indicated: Pre-Engineered Building (PEB) and Brick and Mortar type structure.

It was observed that 74% of the cold stores structures were of the Brick and Mortar type, while 17% of the CS’s that have adopted Modern Pre-Engineered Building structures. On an all India basis, about 8% of the facilities had both kinds of structures. A minimal 1% did not fall under either category (tin, asbestos and indigenous type).

Incidence of PEB structures is comparatively higher in the Western zone and among the cold storages stocking Type M (animal husbandry) products.

6. UPKEEP OF FACILITY

As witnessed in the earlier section, single commodity cold storages are higher in number except in the states of Tamil Nadu, Jharkhand and Delhi where number of multi commodity cold storages outnumber the single ones. Of the 87% of Type H cold storages, 72% only store single commodities.

Single commodity cold storages also have higher storage capacity as compared to multi commodity storages.

Upkeep of facilities were ascertained based on observation by researchers who visited the facilities.

More than 80% single commodity cold storages are considered to have good external condition. Over 70% of them also have good external hygiene and internal road area.

Across zones majority of the cold storages have been given good ratings when it comes to their internal open area and building external condition. States namely MP and Bihar have a scope for improvement on these parameters.

When it comes to the drainage facility, majority of cold storages in states of Maharashtra, AP, Kerala, Karnataka and TN have covered drainage systems.

6. UPKEEP OF FACILITY W.R.T SINGLE/MULTIPLE PRODUCT STORAGE

Nationwide the cold stores were asked to categorise themselves as single commodity or multi-commodity storage basis infrastructure design. The survey revealed that 3,561 cold stores categorised themselves as single commodity cold stores.

6.PRODUCT CATEGORIES STORED

From the total number of cold stores queried, a total of 86% reported they stored fresh horticulture produce, with 516 storing processed foods (vegetarian), 456 stored meat types (processed and non-processed) and 43 stored pharmaceutical goods and other products.

There was overlap between types of products stored as evidenced in this Venn diagram.

Of the 516 that stored processed foods, 52% of them also stored fresh horticultural produce with 211 of them not catering to fresh fruits and vegetables.

Upkeep of facilities were generally observed to be good. These were based on observation by researcher visiting the sites.

27% of the CSs reported upgrading the building in the recent past. 55% of Orissa CSs and 44% of WB CSs reported having upgraded the building.

The cold storage facilities were also categorized based on the type of structure. Primarily the following types were indicated: Pre-Engineered Building (PEB) and Brick and Mortar type structure.

It was observed that 74% of the cold stores structures were of the Brick and mortar type, while 17% of the CS’s that have adopted Modern Pre-engineered Building structures. On an all India basis, about 8% of the facilities had both kinds of structures. A minimal 1% did not fall under either category (tin, asbestos and indigenous type).

The proportion of brick and mortar structures is relatively higher in the Eastern zone. Whereas 1/3rd cold storages in Tamil Nadu and Gujarat are PEB structures.

On an average, 32% of the cold stores were constructed with only one ground floor level. Another 36% had more than four floors. The remaining had between 2 to 4 floors per facility.

The mean land boundary area of all CSs was 4,566.8 sq. meters

The mean covered area of all CSs was 3,568.3 sq meters.

7. GENERAL LAYOUT OF THE FACILITY STORAGE PLATFORMS & TYPE

Type of storage platforms used (%)

In context of the storing platform, almost 96% of the cold stores were designed with wooden,

RCC or steel mezzanine floors. These designs primarily stored goods in gunny bags, crates and boxes. The rest of the cold stores had metal and wooden rack system as the primary platform.

Storing unit types in use (%)

Gunny bags were the main small storage inside the CSs followed by corrugated boxes.

Gunny bags are prominently used in Type H cold storages. 77% of Type H cold storages use gunny bags for storing purposes. Around 40% each of Type Q store products in gunny bags, CFD boxes and plastic crates. Over 70% of Type M and Type Q CSs store in CFD boxes.

Thermocol / EPS / XPS as add-on slabs are the most common insulations type used across India more so in the Eastern zone. A higher percentage of Cold storages in North, utilize fillers like Husk / Rock / Wool etc. Close to 50% Type M cold stores use PUF panels for insulation purposes.

Majority of the cold storages have not had any recent upgrade. This is true across all zones and cold storages stocking various type of products.

Of the Cold storages that have had upgrades, 60% have expanded their capacities.

58% of the cold storage facilities had only a single access gate (main gate to facility), while 36% have two access gates facilitating easy turn-around of traffic. The remaining reported more than two gates with an all India average of 1.6 gates per facility.

The majority of the cold stores (67%) had uncovered parking for visiting trucks with 12% having both covered and uncovered parking lots. Only 21% offered exclusively covered parking inside their boundary wall. A third of Type Q cold storages offer covered parking spaces.

On an average, parking space for 22 vehicles is available inside a facility. The vast land boundary in the North and East offers parking spaces for 25 and 28 trucks respectively.

Transport services were not provided by 79% of the cold storage units. Of the 21% that provided transportation, 67% own the asset base.

Reefer truck facility is available in a meagre 4% cold storages. Of them 68% own the trucks and 47% outsource the services. The percentage adds to over 100% as 14% have own asset base and also use others vehicles

Each facility location was also recorded through geo-tagging of photographs (external picture of each facility visited). Some cold storage owners also permitted pictures of the inside of their infrastructure.

8. CATCHMENT AREA NEAR FACILITY AND PRODUCT TYPE STORED

Farm gate cold storages which are most common in India. 3,414 cold storages stock raw potatoes. Likewise the storages stocking potatoes have the highest installed capacity. Close to 700 cold storages store spices. As compared to all the horticulture products, capacity utilization is highest among storages stocking spices.

When it comes to processed food stocking cold storages, butter is widely stocked. As compared to all the zones, cold storages based in the East are less likely to store butter and close to 50% of them store processed potatoes.

Seafood is stocked by over 70% of the Type M cold storages. Almost 90% of Type M cold storages in South stock sea food.

More than 75% of cold storages are located in states of Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, UP, Punjab & West Bengal.

© COPYRIGHT 2014 122

8. CATCHMENT AREA AROUND THE FACILITY

68% of the CSs stock horticulture products and are categorized as Farm gates due to their location near producing locations

There are other Type H scold stores near mandis, perishable cargo centers, part of network of cold stores etc. Type H actually account for 86% of cold stores in the country

Analysis of capacity utilisation of products stocked shows that the CSs generally have enough clientele to stock the products. Overall average capacity utilisation is 75% which shows that the CS’s catchment area is sustainable

11. ACCESSIBILITY TO THE INFRASTRUCTURE BY VALUE CHAIN STAKEHOLDERS

Highways - State wise analysis shows that over 50% West zone CSs are nearer state highways while in all the other zones, over 50% are near national highways. The average distance to highway is 4 KM for all CSs. The lowest distance of 2.5 KM was mentioned by Pharma type products CSs where as animal husbandry and processed food type reported the longest distance of 4.8 KM. While zone wise analysis shows that North zone has the shortest distance and East zone the longest distance to a highway.

Transport services as a cold-chain service were not provided by 79% of the cold storage units. Of the 21% that provided transportation, 48% had outsourced the transport assets. Thus transporters and logistics companies were lifting the goods of the CSs for distribution purposes using their own vehicle sources.

Railways - On an average 10.5 KM is the average distance of a cold store from the nearest railway station. Zone wise analysis shows that North reported lowest distance while South reported the longest distance to a railway station.

Airport - On an average, the distance to airport was 45.4 KM. This is lowest for Pharma type product cold stores. Zone wise analysis shows that West zone reported shortest distance, followed by South.

Sea Port – Many cold stores could not mention the distance to sea ports. Of those who mentioned, on an average the distance to sea port was 34.7 KM. Type Q cold storages report lower distances from sea port as compared to other product type storing cold storages. Cold storages in the East zone are the farthest from any of the sea ports.

13. TECHNOLOGY USED

The technology in this sector varies across myriad components of the infrastructure in use. This study queried about the following components - type of cooling coils (open tube or fin tube), door release system, fire fighting system, refrigeration automation, sensors and air ventilation, type of refrigerant gas, leak detection, cargo handling and tools, etc.

One third of CS’s use open tube evaporators (Bunker coil system) in their CSs. This was observed mainly in Horticulture based CS. The usage of this system is minimal (16%) in Type M CSs.

13. TECHNOLOGY USED

Usage of Bunker coil system is dropped post 2009.

The average number of chambers in a cold storage is around 3 per store.

50% of the chambers had one door and other 50% of the chambers have two doors.

12% cold stores reported using fillers (husk, glass wool, sand dust or unspecified) for their primary thermal insulation. The majority, about 71% of the cold stores were using add-on insulating boards in the form of EPS (expanded polystyrene) or thermocol slabs. The incidence of using pre-fabricated PUF panels was low with only 12% cold stores reporting the use of Poly Urethane Foam.

1/3rd of Type M CSs use fillers for insulation of their chambers.

Majority of CSs have chambers with thickness of 50mm or above. Almost 50% of these cold storages have chambers with 70mm or more thickness. The average thickness is reported to be 74mm.

Chambers using PUF panels for insulation purposes have maximum thickness of 84mm. The lowest thickness is for chambers using mix for insulation.

Across all cold storages it has been found that they have an average of 4.0 evaporators and 2.5 compressors. Type Q cold storages have above average evaporators as well as compressors i.e. 5.7 evaporators and almost 4 compressors.

In evaporators major manufacturers who have supplied are Frick India, Kirloskar, Akash, Super Freezer, Blue Star, Carrier, New Coil India etc. The mean age of evaporators is 9 years. Respondents are not able to mention the model name. They merely mention the year of installation – ‘2009 model’ ‘2005 model’

In terms of compressors, the manufacturers who have supplied equipment are Kirloskar, Frick India, Star Cooler, Meetelex, Super Freezer, Blue Star etc. The mean age of compressor in use is 10 years. Mean capacity of compressors is 116 KW

Respondents are not able to mention the type of compressors properly –centrifugal, reciprocal, screw type etc. They mention it as ammonia based or air and water cooled based.

Fire fighting system Gas based extinguishers are the mainly used fire fighting and detection systems. CSs were

using more than one type of system to fight fire in their cold stores.

Fire Fighting System in use by Age of CS (%)

Only 16% of the cold stores use Smoke detectors as a fire alarm system. Many supplanted this with manual fire rounds though 53% did not rely on physical fire rounds as a process. Use of various types of fire extinguishing equipment was reported in most cold stores. Foam and gas based extinguishers were most common with sprinklers and fire hydrants and hoses.

The majority of cold stores were primarily using ammonia as refrigerant gas. A small 0.23% confirmed that they were using CO2 gas as the primary refrigerant.

As refrigerant gas, 10% of the total cold stores used Freon based cooling systems especially by CS’s storing animal husbandry goods (meats, fish, poultry, etc.). Freon is used by a smaller CS’s more common in states like Assam, Chandigarh, Andaman, Kerala etc. Refrigerant gas R22 is the most commonly used Freon gas.

Most cold storages have more than 1 chamber. Some cold stores have 1 chamber, some have 4 some may have 7 or 10. Thus to avoid looking into details of each chamber separately, we have shown a cumulative number which comprises of the total number of chambers across all cold storages.

Example: If CS 1 has 3 chambers and CS 2 has 5 chambers, then the total number shown will be 8 chambers.

More literally, in Maharashtra we have covered 451 cold stores however the total number of chambers are 1783. Each cold store has an average of around 5.4 chambers.

Data for different type chambers is kept as it is and the responses for similar type chambers have been multiplied by the number of available such chambers in the cold stores.

For instance if a CS has 7 similar type chambers, the study has ascertained details only once and all the details related to the chamber has been multiplied by 7. This in the final output the number of chambers would be 7 and not 1.

The same exercise has been carried out for Compressors, Evaporators & DG Sets.

• Multiple systems are used by cold stores to detect fire. Gas based extinguishers are the mainly used fire fighting and detection systems. They are utilized in varied proportions across different types of cold stores.

• While different types of extinguishers are used to put down fire, only 16% have smoke detectors. Most CSs rely on manual rounds only to detect smoke/fire

Zone wise

• More than 80% of Eastern zone storages use gas based fire fighting systems for safety measures.

• More than 50% of the storages in North & East use manual rounds.

• Of the 1807 compressors where Freon gas is used, majority of Type P, M & Q storages use R404A type of Freon gas. However in Type H cold stores usage of R22 prevails by a sizeable number which is to be replaced as per directive. It is also found that R12 is still in vogue which should have been replaced by now.

• R22 is used relatively by a higher proportion of cold stores in the East, West and South. • 30% of CS’s in North use R22 and 23% of CS in East use R12

The survey found that 68% cold storages at an all India level do not subscribe to any annual maintenance contracts. However as compared to other states, more cold storages in Maharashtra, AP, Delhi and TN have subscribed to AMC’s. On the axis of product storage, two thirds of the Type H, P & M cold stores have not subscribed to AMC.

In rural areas marginally higher percentage have AMC contracts.

But between NHB assisted CSs and others there is no significant difference in having AMC contracts.

A good 44% of government owned cold storages subscribe to AMC. The proportion subscribing to AMC’s among other ownership types are comparatively much lower.

Of 1438 CSs that are using AMCs, over 90% cold storages have subscribed to it for its refrigeration and plant equipment and 65% of them for diesel gensets.

AMCs for gensets in the Northern zone total to 77%. This number is comparatively much lower in other zones with the least in West.

Spare parts are maintained for both refrigeration unit as well as power units.

Almost 80% cold storages all over India stock spare parts for refrigeration. This is specially evident in the states of Haryana, Kerala, WB and TN. Cold storages in the Western zone are less likely to store any kind of spare parts as compared to the other zones. More than 90% cold storages in WB also store spare parts for power units.

Of those having AMCs(32%), over 90% of Type H cold stores have subscribed to AMC for refrigeration plant and equipments. Across other Type of storages too, subscription for the same purpose is high. Two thirds of Type H CS’s also have AMC contract for Diesel gensets too.

In all zones 87% to 96% of those having AMC have taken AMC fro refrigeration plants. In the Northern zone, higher proportions of cold storages have AMCs for diesel gensets compared to other zones.

Periodic Maintenance Followed

Over 50% claim to do periodic maintenances. In Pharma CSs over two thirds claim to do periodic maintenance. In zone wise analysis, in East zone nearly 2/3rd claim to have periodic maintenance. However in the South this proportion drops down to 38%.

More percentage of CSs located in rural areas do regular periodic maintenance compared to CSs in urban areas. Like wise, NHB more percentage of NHB assisted CSs do regular periodic maintenance

Close to 60% of Public limited, cooperative and government owned cold storages do undertake periodic maintenances.

15. CAPACITY UTILIZATION PATTERN OVER LAST 3 YEARS.

At an all India level the study indicates that there is 75% capacity utilization of cold storages. India has wide array of CS’s when looked at by its storage capacity. There are smaller CSs which can store less than 1,000 MT of produce and then there are mega CS’s which store 10,000 MT of capacity. States like WB, UP & Chandigarh boasts having extremely high storage capacity: average storage capacity is more than 6000 MT. Karnataka and Maharashtra, despite having higher number of cold storages, have average storage capacity of less than 2000 MT.

15. CAPACITY UTILIZATION PATTERN OVER LAST 3 YEARS.

In terms of capacity utilization, North (75%), East (77%) and South (76%) zones are ones which have higher utilization. West (71%) is lagging in terms of capacity utilization and thus there is scope for increased storage of produce in these states.

Capacity Utilisation by type of product stored

Capacity utilization is over 70% for all product type stored with Horticulture having the highest

capacity utilization.

Analysis was done to check whether there is any problem of capacity utilization if the storage capacity is higher.

CSs having different capacities have over 70% capacity utilization. There is no problem in capacity utilization whether the unit is having less than 100 tonnes capacity or over 5000 tonnes capacity.

16. POWER SOURCE, GENERATORS OR ALTERNATE SOURCE

On an average most CS’s get a sanctioned load in the range of 150 – 200 kVA. Gujarat, Kerala, and West Bengal are states which have been sanctioned more than 200 kVA of load which is higher than the national average of 168.9 kVA. Some bigger states like Karnataka and Rajasthan have extremely low sanctioned loads which may be an area of concern for the CS’s located there.

Yearly energy utilization

In 2012-13, the all India expense on energy is INR 18.99 Lakh (per cold store per year). Animal

husbandry and pharmaceutical based CS’s have a relatively higher expenditure on energy, and report existence of higher number of evaporator / compressor units in these facilities.

States in East zone spend the most on the energy cost per year as their average expense is more than Rs 28 Lakhs per annum. Diesel powered generators are used across the country and the national average consumption of diesel per cold store is 16473 litres per year.

As existence of power and continuous supply of power is an absolute necessity, not a single CS was without a DG set. In fact many of them had more than 1 DG set

Due to lower availability of grid power in South Zone the penetration of DG sets is justifiably higher. The quantum of DG fuel used is highest in South

Average age of DG sets was 9 years. The average capacity of gen set was 143 kVA. The major manufacturers of DG sets in use were Kirloskar, Ashok Leyland, Cummins and Eicher

Adoption of Alternate sources of energy (like wind, solar, thermal power) is still very low where 95% of CS’s do not have a provision for the same.

17. AUTOMATION USED IN CARGO HANDLING AND REMOTE MONITORING OF CS’s

Cargo Handling and Automation tools

Hand pallet lifters & Conveyor belts for unloading / loading are the 2 are prominent

automation tools used.

Only 8% of the cold stores (350 facilities) reported having mechanised forklifts for handling loads. Almost 6% had cargo lifts installed for multi-level movement.

Specifically 23% of Type Q cold storages utilize data loggers and cargo lifts. Usage of these automation tools among other product type cold storages is comparatively lower.

Mechanization in the North based cold storages is not as much since 27% of them still rely on manual workers and laborers.

17. AUTOMATION USED IN CARGO HANDLING AND REMOTE MONITORING OF CS’s

Technology has penetrated in many areas of CS’s, but there are certain areas which still follow the rudimentary way of doing things. Air ventilation is an area that still has great scope of improvement with only 21% having Automatic ventilation. Similarly use of automation in refrigeration too is limited with manual cut-offs and cut-ins across India.

Timely Air ventilation becomes an important activity in the CS’s. Automatic ventilation system is adopted in 1 out of every 5 CS’s (21%). Automated ventilation is adopted most in 42% of cold stores storing Animal Husbandry products. Overall in 35% of CSs in the West zone and 30% of those in the South zone have automated ventilation systems.

More than 90% cold storages in the North and East make use of manual air replenishment systems. This is primarily witnessed in the states of UP and WB.

Sensors for Atmosphere

Adoption of other automated technology like CO2 & Oxygen sensors and automated controllers remain extremely segmented. Only bigger CS’s (in terms of storage capacity) of UP, Gujarat & MP have adopted these automation to a higher extent. Manual cut-off / cut-in remains the most preferred method of refrigeration control in CS’s across India.

CO2 sensors are more prevalent in private and public limited companies

17. AUTOMATION USED IN CARGO HANDLING AND REMOTE MONITORING OF CS’s

At an all India level, we see that 60% cold storages do not have sensors to measure the proportion of CO2, O2 and humidity in the atmosphere. 1 out of 4 Type H and Type M cold storages make use of such sensors.

In both North and West zones, close to 30% cold storages have automatic sensors fitted in the facility.

The number of cold storages using CO2 sensors are higher among those built after 2009.

Only 23% of CSs had automation for drives. Of those who had, 46% had variable frequency

drives, 39% had programme logic control and 32% had energy recovery wheels. In the Western zone usage of ERW’s is higher than in other zones. Over 55% of Type M and East based cold storages have variable frequency drives.

Automation for drives is more prevalent in cold storages built after 2009.

In monitoring gas leakage only 18% had automatic system to detect gas leakage while the rest had only manual checking by technicians. In the Western zone more so in the states of Maharashtra and Gujarat 1/3rd storages detect gas leakages with help of machines.

18. BUSINESS PROCESS AND DOCUMENTATION -HACCP, ISO FSSA ETC..

A meagre 17% of Cold storages have quality certifications like HACCP, ISO or FSSA.

65% of type M CSs has certification. This is highest among all types of products stored. In contrast, Type H has the lowest certification which is driving the overall scores.

Talking about zones, North and East both have less than 10% of their cold storages with certifications

There is higher incidences of CS’s having certification in the state of Maharashtra, Kerala and Tamil Nadu.

FSSA certification is obtained by 42% of the cold storages. HACCP falls second in the line. Type M has mainly HACCP certifications. More than half of Type P cold storages are ISO certified.

FSSA certification is acquired by more than 55% of cold stores in Maharashtra.

Most of the CSs have acquired these certificates in the last 10 years with 50% of them getting it in the last 1 year.

Despite lower penetration of quality certifications, the future intentions of having a certification is reported by among 53% of the CS’s. However more than half of North and South zone cold storages are still reluctant to get certification.

The most sought after certificate is for ISO certificate, followed by FSSA certificate. In the North, FSSA tops the intended certification list.

20. HUMAN RESOURCES DETAILS

It was apparent in the technology section of this report that dependency of the Indian CS’s is very high on manual labor. Right from ventilation, evaporation, safety measure to reefer technology, manpower plays a crucial role.

All India average of number of permanent employees in a cold storage is 20.7. This figure increases when it comes to CS’s which store Animal husbandry and Processed foods. Horticulture based CS’s have a modest 13.7 employees per CS.

Qualification level of all Employees in the Cold storage

Out of these 20.7 (average score) employees in each CS, 1 is a post graduate, 3 are graduates

and the remaining are either 10th pass, diploma holders or unskilled people. Animal Husbandry based CS’s have a higher number of employees who are graduates or post graduates.

20. HUMAN RESOURCES DETAILS

Thus the CS’s have a mix of employees with varied education background but 75% of them either with a diploma or 10th standard & less. Thus, employability is more directed towards on job skills in these CS’s.

Cold stores were unable to give any definitive response to number of contractual employees, but the general consensus understood was that unskilled labour is hired depending on work load and seasonality. The numbers can vary from 20 to 300 per cold store.

Cold Stores must have refrigeration engineers or technicians. All India, a mean of 2.5 reefer technicians per cold storage facility is reported. There is a surge in these numbers for CS’s storing processed foods and animal husbandry products. An average of 3.0 reefer technicians have formal training - ITI / Diploma holders.

In terms of training, over 71% of employees have not attended a training program in the last one year. Out of those who did, most of them have attended the company funded / organized training program.

There is very high sensitization of employees towards skill up-gradation and 76% of the cold stores reported that they intend to join training programs if organized by the government.

6 DEFINITIONS & DESCRIPTIONS

Item Description

Secondary Cooling

system

Where the primary expansion based cooling is used to cool a second

medium (usually brine water or air), which in turn is circulated to give

cooling effect in the target area.

In normal home AC’s you witness primary cooling system as the primary

evaporator (or cooling unit) is inside the space to be cooled indoor unit.

But in large hotels and shopping malls, the primary cooling unit is outside,

where it first is used to cool the air. This cold air is blown through AC

ducts to individual rooms or the target areas – this is example of

secondary cooling system. In commercial refrigeration systems, high

density fluid (brine water) is first cooled and this is circulated through

pipes inside the chamber to perform the cooling in the chambers

(secondary cooling).

Sorting / Grading Sorting and grading for fresh agri produce. Can be done manually or by

using specialized equipment& technology (conveyor belts, optical

graders, size matching, etc).

temperature, moisture level and carbon dioxide level in the air. Is used by

many modern cold storages.

Ventilation Fresh produce needs oxygen to survive. Vents to refresh air are provided,

these can be manual or automated (automatic controller)

Wooden mezzanine

platform

Half height floor, similar as steel mezzanine except that wood planks are

used to make each floor instead of steel.
