The opportunities for the development of the cold chain in the Cambodian agri-fishery sector are getting growing attention, and rightfully so as improving cold storage could help reduce losses and improve the quality and freshness of products.
This webinar aims to strengthen the knowledge around cold storage to build a stronger enabling ecosystem facilitating these solutions’ scale up in the coming years. By showcasing local and international case studies, it also wishes to demonstrate different solutions that have shown great results and could potentially be replicated.
