The cold chain tracking and monitoring market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $7.03 billion in 2024 to $8 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to globalization of supply chains, stringent regulatory standards, rise in demand for perishable goods, focus on food safety.
The cold chain tracking and monitoring market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $13.95 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to e-commerce growth in food and pharmaceuticals, increased complexity in supply chains, growing pharmaceutical industry, focus on sustainability and environmental impact, and pandemic-driven changes in healthcare logistics. Major trends in the forecast period include environmental sustainability, data security concerns, collaborations and partnerships, real-time visibility and analytics.
The cold chain tracking and monitoring market is poised for growth due to the escalating demand for food and beverages. This sector encompasses the vast array of goods involved in the production, processing, distribution, and consumption of food and drink. The implementation of comprehensive cold chain tracking and production processes within the food and beverage industry ensures that products reach consumers in a safe, fresh, and high-quality condition. Notably, global food and beverage sales, as reported by Common Thread Collective, a US-based e-commerce growth agency, surged from $435.3 billion in 2021 to $506 billion in April 2022. Projections indicate a further increase to $857 billion by 2025. Consequently, the rising demand for food and beverages is a driving force behind the expansion of the cold chain tracking and monitoring market.
Increasing consumer demand for transparency is expected to drive growth in the cold chain tracking and monitoring market. This demand refers to consumers' rising expectations for clear and easily accessible information regarding the products and services they purchase. By utilizing cold chain technologies, businesses can offer consumers visibility into the entire supply chain process, ensuring transparency in the handling, transportation, and storage of temperature-sensitive products. For instance, in September 2023, the Harvard Business Review reported that when a brand scores high on transparency, younger consumers are 30% more likely than older ones to spend more on it and 20% more likely to choose it over competing brands. Therefore, the increasing consumer demand for transparency will propel the cold chain tracking and monitoring market in the future.
A prominent trend gaining traction in the cold chain tracking and monitoring market is the adoption of technology innovations. Major companies in this market are embracing new technologies to maintain their competitive positions. In May 2023, Tridentify, a Sweden-based MedTech company, introduced a real-time cold chain monitoring system, revolutionizing the industry. This cutting-edge technology provides a comprehensive view of the stability and remaining shelf life of pharmaceutical items in real-time. Equipped with advanced sensors and machine-learning algorithms, this monitoring system enables businesses to make data-driven decisions by delivering an accurate and real-time assessment of consignments. The innovative solution from Tridentify allows businesses to monitor their operations and shipment stability effectively, marking a significant advancement in the cold chain tracking and monitoring market.
Prominent players in the cold chain tracking and monitoring market are actively engaged in the development of innovative products, particularly cloud-based software solutions tailored for outbound shipments. This strategic focus aims to enhance supply chain efficiency, accuracy, and visibility in response to the growing demand for advanced technologies in the distribution of temperature-sensitive goods. The term 'cloud-based software solution for outbound shipments' refers to a system that operates and stores data in the cloud, providing a comprehensive platform for overseeing and managing shipment processes. Notably, in November 2023, Sensitech Inc., a US-based provider of supply chain visibility solutions, introduced a groundbreaking feature within the SensiWatch platform dedicated to monitoring outbound shipments. This advancement marks a significant step forward in cold chain monitoring, extending real-time cargo protection to the final stage of outbound operations. The result is the assurance of delivering high-quality perishable goods, supported by a comprehensive and easily deployable cloud-based solution. Leveraging Sensitech IoT sensors, this solution enables real-time cargo monitoring from distribution centers to retail establishments and restaurants. Overcoming previous limitations in cold-chain monitoring, it provides complete visibility into the last mile, empowering transportation managers to address root-cause issues affecting the quality of perishables, including food and medicine.
In January 2022, FourKites Inc., a US-based supply chain intelligence platform company, made a strategic acquisition by purchasing NIC GmbH for an undisclosed amount. This move positions FourKites and NIC to establish Europe's largest multimodal carrier network, offering international shippers a comprehensive platform for end-to-end supply chain insight. The acquisition is expected to accelerate the deployment of carrier-specific technologies for secure real-time visibility. NIC GmbH, based in Germany, specializes in cold supply chain visibility and monitoring, further contributing to the expansion of capabilities within the combined entity.
