Project brief

Refrigeration project brief for Seychelles

ColdMatch is a procurement and project-sourcing platform — we review your brief, prepare an RFQ and introduce independent suppliers and EPC contractors. We do not manufacture, install, commission, operate, guarantee or finance equipment. Use this brief to scope a commercial or industrial project before you approach the market.

Design for roughly 30–34 °C dry-bulb with very high humidity year-round and constant salt-laden coastal air; there is no distinct cool season to offset envelope gain.

Typical demand segments

  • Tuna and fisheries handling and export-grade freezing around Port Victoria
  • Hotel, resort and catering cold rooms across Mahé, Praslin and La Digue
  • Imported food distribution
  • Small-scale pharmaceutical and vaccine storage

Temperature zones

ZoneRangeTypical use
Chilled0…+4 °CHotel/catering back-of-house, imported food distribution
Frozen−18…−25 °CFrozen fish and food distribution
Deep-freeze−40…−60 °CSashimi-grade export tuna handling

Recommended system options

Independent suppliers will propose the system that fits your throughput, budget and site — these are the option families most often specified for this market.

Duty/standby packaged condensing racks

Any island site — redundancy is prioritised over single-plant efficiency because a failed compressor can mean weeks offline

Marine-grade corrosion-protected packaged units

All coastal and island installations exposed to constant salt-laden air

CO₂ or ammonia central plant with redundancy

Larger fisheries or distribution facilities where duty/standby compressor racks are engineered into the plant design

Deep-freeze (−40 °C to −60 °C) plant

Export-grade tuna handling where product must be held far below standard frozen temperature

Power, grid & backup

  • Island grid supply from PUC is the planning baseline; a single fault can affect a whole district on a small grid
  • Standby generation sized to full refrigeration load with automatic transfer is typically specified given limited grid redundancy
  • Remote temperature monitoring and on-site critical spares reduce reliance on fly-in technicians, since replacement parts can take days to arrive

Compliance & authorities

Confirm current requirements directly with each authority; ColdMatch does not certify compliance and this is not legal advice.

Ministry of Agriculture, Climate Change and Environment — Ozone Unit
Refrigerant import and ozone-depleting substance compliance
Seychelles Bureau of Standards (SBS)
Product and equipment conformity and standards
Public Health Authority
Food storage and handling compliance
Public Utilities Corporation (PUC)
Grid connection, tariff and supply capacity

What to include in your RFQ brief

  1. Product(s) to be stored or processed and required shelf life
  2. Temperature zone(s) required (chilled, frozen, deep-freeze, dual-temp)
  3. Peak and average throughput (tonnes/day or pallets/day in and out)
  4. Site location, available plot size and any existing structure
  5. Site power supply — voltage, phases, connected capacity, grid reliability
  6. Whether standby generation or renewable hybrid supply is required
  7. Target commissioning date and any seasonal deadline (harvest, fishing season, etc.)
  8. Preferred delivery model — turnkey EPC (single contract) or multi-supplier procurement
  9. Compliance/permit requirements already known (ozone unit registration, food-safety, pharma GDP)
  10. Budget range and whether financing or leasing is being considered

Frequently asked questions

Why does island logistics matter so much for Seychellois cold storage projects?

Freight is transhipped through regional hubs with fewer direct sailings, installation crews and specialist technicians usually travel in, and spare parts can take days rather than hours to arrive. Redundant duty/standby compressor arrangements and on-site critical spares are typically specified for exactly this reason.

What temperature does export-grade tuna need?

Sashimi-grade tuna intended for export is generally held at deep-freeze temperatures of roughly −40 °C to −60 °C, well below the −18…−25 °C used for standard frozen storage. This is priced and engineered as a separate capital item from standard frozen storage.

Which authorities are typically involved in a Seychellois cold storage project?

Refrigerant and ozone-related matters generally sit with the Ministry of Agriculture, Climate Change and Environment's ozone unit; equipment and product standards with the Seychelles Bureau of Standards; food-handling compliance with the Public Health Authority; and grid connection with PUC. Confirm current requirements directly with each authority.

Does ColdMatch operate cold storage facilities in Seychelles?

No. ColdMatch reviews project briefs, prepares RFQs and introduces independent suppliers and EPC contractors with island and fisheries project experience. We do not manufacture, install, commission, operate, guarantee or finance equipment.

What should a Seychellois cold storage RFQ specify?

Product and required temperature (including deep-freeze if tuna is involved), redundancy expectation, site location (Mahé, Praslin, La Digue), power and standby generation plan, shipping and installation crew logistics, and preferred delivery model. See the RFQ checklist above.

Local project facts for Seychelles: costs, power, transport and import timeline

Planning figures to scope your request before suppliers quote. Final prices and lead times always come from actual supplier quotations.

Indicative installed cost

  • 30–60 m³ chilled roomUSD 12,000 – 41,000
  • 500–1,000 m³ frozen storeUSD 407,000 – 1.18M
  • 5,000 m³ chilled distribution storeUSD 2.28M – 4.32M

Island freight, small order sizes and salt-air corrosion protection drive cost.

Power supply

240 V / 50 Hz grid operated by PUC on Mahé and Praslin; supply is diesel-based and tariffs are high, so efficiency and solar matter.

Ports and transport

Port Victoria on Mahé is the only commercial port and a major tuna hub; Seychelles International handles air cargo.

Typical import timeline

  • Supplier quotations and technical alignment4–8 weeks
  • Equipment and panel manufacturing8–16 weeks
  • Shipping, clearance and delivery to site5–8 weeks
  • Installation and commissioning4–10 weeks
