This report, published in this form for the second time, ranks the top 25 providers of temperature-controlled logistics services, that include transport, distribution and storage, in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The report also includes the assessments made by these companies of the challenges that they expect the industry to face in 2015. And for the first time we include an overview of the own-account sector, primarily food producers and retailers. The report, sponsored by truck refrigeration system manufacturer, Thermo King, is prepared by Global Cold Chain News, the UK's leading business-to-business website used by owners, directors and senior managers working for companies operating commercial vehicle fleets used for temperature-controlled transport. The report tables show financial performance by turnover for the past five years, the fleet size by vehicle number and type, as well as the storage capacity of each company.
