Westore Frozen recently opened a 180,000-sq.-ft. cold storage facility in Houston.
The expansion represents a significant milestone for the company, underscoring its commitment to meeting the evolving needs of the food, pharmaceutical, and logistics industries across the nation, the company said. The state-of-the-art facility is equipped with advanced refrigeration systems and cutting-edge monitoring technology that help ensure optimal temperature control and energy efficiency. The facility is designed to handle large-scale operations while remaining flexible enough to cater to smaller clients.
We Store Frozen customers include national retail giants such as Costco, Walmart, CVS, and HEB. The company also is dedicated to supporting a growing network of small suppliers—many of whom are thriving thanks to social media and direct-to-consumer sales. This strategic mix enables Westore Frozen to serve the unique demands of both major corporations and emerging brands.
“The market in Texas is booming. Texas is one of the fastest-growing markets in the USA, and the cold storage arena is experiencing unprecedented growth,” Dimitri Menin, Westore Frozen president, and Omri Shafran, Westore Frozen CEO, stated in a news release. “Everyone wants to move to Texas. Having the largest facility in the nation, along with an amazing team that drives business, gives us the ability to be in the middle of the action and provide services from New York to Los Angeles at very competitive rates.”
Strategically located in Houston—a major logistics hub—the facility not only enhances distribution capabilities across the Southern United States, it also plays a critical role in serving nationwide markets. Its robust infrastructure is designed to manage high inventory volumes, adjust to seasonal demand fluctuations, and maintain strict quality and safety standards.
Sustainability is a key focus at the new Houston facility. Energy-efficient systems are integrated throughout the building to minimize environmental impact without compromising performance, the company reported. This commitment to green practices aligns with Westore Frozen’s broader mission of promoting environmentally responsible business practices within the cold storage industry.
