Central Cold Solutions has announced plans for the construction of a new Ti Cold cold storage operating company in Conway. This $42 million investment, which will be located on Mayor Lane in the Conway East Industrial Park, is expected to bring 40 new jobs to the city.
Ti Cold is a nationally recognized leader in the cold chain industry. Plans call for a 125,000-square-foot advanced cold storage complex with 50-foot clear heights featuring a flexible, convertible design that can maintain temperatures ranging from 40 to minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit, according to a press release.
“We’re thrilled to honor our community-minded roots by bringing a public refrigerated cold storage facility to Conway, Arkansas,” Central Cold Solutions President Shane Dickson said. “Our partnership with Ti Cold enables us to deliver an innovative, scalable, and sustainable cold storage solution to this thriving region of central Arkansas.”
The facility will implement an environmentally friendly, low-charge ammonia system that uses natural refrigerant in low volumes. Structural steel pallet racks will accommodate over 29,520 pallet positions.
“We are excited about this new partnership with Central Cold Solutions,” Ti Cold Executive Vice President Rob Adams said. “Conway, Arkansas, is an important, growing community and will be a strong distribution hub for serving the Conway and Little Rock area.”
Central Cold Solution aims to support food wholesalers, retailers and food manufacturing customers in central Arkansas through this facility.
“We couldn’t be more pleased to bring Central Cold Solutions’ cutting-edge services to our neighbors and the broader community,” Dickson said.
