What We Do

For more than 125 years, United States Cold Storage (USCS) has protected America’s food supply through a national network of 39 world‑class, temperature‑controlled facilities across 14 states. Today, that mission is driven as much by software as it is by steel and concrete. Behind every truck, pallet, and movement is a modern, in‑house engineering organization building the mission‑critical systems that run our warehouses. Our teams develop and operate the technology that tracks inventory in real time, optimizes labor and throughput, integrates automation and robotics, and connects seamlessly with our partners’ supply chains. We work across multiple clouds and databases, leverage modern data platforms like Snowflake, and solve complex computer science problems—from optimization to routing at scale. With more than 4,300 employees and a 200+ person IT organization operating like a modern product and engineering group, USCS offers the rare combination of stability, scale, and complex technical challenges. We do whatever it takes to help our partners profitably reach their goals—whether that’s primary cold storage or fully integrated third‑party logistics—because when the temperature matters, getting it right matters even more. Our facilities are located in: California, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Virginia.

Why Work With Us

USCS is a family built on trust, teamwork, and pride. From freezer floors to engineering, everyone helps build the next generation of cold storage with practical tech that makes operations safer and smarter—because here, you don’t just keep food moving—you build how it moves next.
