Providing essential support to the growing needs of refrigerated transporters serving the food distribution and agricultural industries in California’s Inland Empire region, Carrier Transicold of Southern California (CTSC) has opened a new 42,000-square-foot service facility. The modern 12-bay facility is the largest of CTSC’s three locations in Southern California. Situated on a 6.5-acre parcel located at 2610 Rubidoux Blvd., Jurupa Valley, near the confluence of I-215 and California highways 60 and 91, the new CTSC location provides convenient access to trucking fleets and owner-operators throughout the busy transit corridor.
Multiple new refrigerated (reefer) rail companies have entered the market in recent years, and existing service providers are investing more capital into developing and expanding their fleets and geographic reach.
The integration of multi-temperature systems is further expected to create growth opportunities for refrigerated transport service providers and frozen and chilled food product manufacturers.
