Start with the project, not the product

What commercial cold chain project are you developing?

Our buyers are not sourcing a compressor or a cold room — they are building a temperature-controlled business asset. Select your project objective and we take it from scope definition through professional RFQ, qualified supplier comparison and financing routes.

How It Works

From request to refrigeration in 4 steps.

01

Describe your project

Category, capacity, temperature range and country — via short form or full RFQ Builder in 19 languages. Free for buyers, no sign-up required.

02

Set budget & timeline

Share your budget bracket and target operational date. Use our calculators to pre-size cold rooms, load and CAPEX.

03

We contact global suppliers

ColdMatch routes your RFQ to qualified manufacturers and EPC partners worldwide, typically within one business day.

04

Compare & choose

Receive multiple competing offers in 2–5 business days. Pick the supplier that fits your specs, budget and timeline.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask before sourcing with us.

Is ColdMatch Group a manufacturer or reseller of refrigeration equipment?+

No. ColdMatch Group is an independent industrial refrigeration procurement marketplace. We do not manufacture refrigeration equipment, represent specific brands, or promote preferred suppliers. Our role is to help organizations identify qualified global suppliers, compare technical and commercial solutions objectively, and reduce procurement risk on cold storage, industrial refrigeration, blast freezer, food processing and turnkey cold chain projects.

How does ColdMatch Group stay supplier-neutral?+

Every recommendation is based on your project's engineering, operational and commercial requirements — not on supplier preference. ColdMatch does not receive brand commissions that bias supplier selection, and buyers always receive competing offers from multiple qualified refrigeration suppliers so decisions can be made objectively.

What is ColdMatch Group and what does it do?+

ColdMatch Group is an independent global B2B procurement platform for refrigeration, cold storage and cold-chain projects. Buyers submit one request and our experts source, vet and compare qualified suppliers, EPC contractors and turnkey providers worldwide — covering cold rooms, blast freezers, IQF tunnels, NH3/CO2 industrial refrigeration, pharma GDP storage and refrigerated logistics.

Is ColdMatch Group discoverable by search engines and AI assistants?+

ColdMatch Group is structured for discovery by search engines and AI assistants. We publish structured llms.txt, ai.txt and JSON-LD schema in multiple languages so our cold-chain procurement content is machine-readable, citable and easy to find across global markets.
