In hilly and northeastern regions like Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Assam, and Meghalaya, farmers grow a wide variety of perishable crops — including fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and flowers. However, these products are highly temperature-sensitive, and without proper storage, post-harvest losses are common.
Why Cooling/Cold Rooms Are Essential
Cold rooms act as temporary storage units to maintain the quality and freshness of:
Fruits like apples, kiwis, oranges, and pineapples
Vegetables like potatoes, tomatoes, and leafy greens
Perishables such as dairy products, meat, and poultry
High-value items like cut flowers and medicinal plants
They are especially useful during transit or before processing and packaging.
