What is an RFQ and why use ColdMatch's RFQ builder?

A Request for Quotation (RFQ) is the structured document buyers send suppliers to receive comparable, apples-to-apples offers. ColdMatch's RFQ builder guides you through capacity, temperature class, budget and timeline in 6 minutes, produces a supplier-ready brief, and routes it to matching cold-chain manufacturers, EPC contractors and equipment vendors in our qualified global network.

Is the RFQ builder really free?

Yes. ColdMatch is free for buyers — no sign-up, no credit card, no obligation. Suppliers pay us only after you accept an offer and close a project. Sourcing, RFQ distribution and shortlist are always free.

Which languages does the RFQ builder support?

English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, Japanese and Korean. Your inputs are translated into English for supplier distribution, and you receive quote comparisons back in your language.
