Less food waste. Reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Greater food security. This is the path to addressing hunger and a better future. It takes a more sustainable cold chain to get us there.

The World Cold Chain Symposium (WCCS) is a global conference organized by The Global Food Cold Chain Council (GFCCC) in partnership with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and sponsored by Carrier.

The 2023 World Cold Chain Symposium was held in Nairobi, Kenya, on Oct. 21, 2023. The theme for this year’s World Cold Chain Symposium was Sustainable Growth: Building Business Models for Cold Chain Development.

The Global Food Cold Chain Council and experts worldwide came together for an in-person, complimentary event focused on the benefits of building efficient and sustainable business models for the development of the cold chain around the globe.
