316 of 316 cold storage sites here have a source link; the rest are listed without one until we find it. Counts are sites we have recorded, not a full census, so they grow as coverage grows. Data updated 22 October 2026.
316 sites as of 22 October 2026, with 298 placed on a map and 95 sourced figures and 17 recorded deals. Coverage: 316 of 316 sites carry a source link and 298 of 316 are on a map. This counts the sites we have recorded, not every cold storage site in the United States, and it grows as coverage grows.
California, with 28 of the 316 sites tracked (9%). Next: Georgia (28), Texas (24), Pennsylvania (21), New Jersey (20). Coverage: counts are sites tracked, not a census; states that rank lower are in the workspace.
The three states with the most sites, California, Georgia, Texas, hold 80 of the 316 sites tracked (25%). Coverage: this is the spread of the sites we track, which may differ from the spread of all cold storage sites in the United States.
By sites tracked: Americold Realty Trust (209), Lineage Logistics (33), United States Cold Storage (USCS) (23), Interstate Warehousing (Tippmann Group) (7), Arcadia Cold Storage & Logistics (7). This ranks by sites tracked, not by building area, so a ranking by capacity or area can put the same names in a different order. Coverage: the 5 named hold 279 of 316 sites tracked; a site is listed under the operator its source names, and where none is named it is not attributed.
Operating: 3.5 million sqm. Planned or under construction: 82,676 sqm. Operating means a site that is open; planned means announced, planned or under construction. The two are different statuses and are never added together. Coverage: building area is reported for 137 of 316 sites; a site with no reported figure adds nothing.
In California, building area is 352,103 sqm operating. The split by site is as of 20 October 2026. Coverage: reported for 14 of 28 sites in California; the rest add nothing.
By sites tracked in California: Americold Realty Trust (17), United States Cold Storage (USCS) (6), Lineage Logistics (5). The split by site is as of 20 October 2026. Coverage: sites in California whose source names no operator are not attributed to anyone here.
