Engineered with flexibility and scale in mind to meet evolving cargo needs, the facility’s capacity to store nearly 20,000 freezer and cooler pallets significantly expands MEDLOG’s comprehensive cold storage solutions for customers across the meat industry. Additionally, convertible storage zones ranging from –28.9°C to +4.4°C allow MEDLOG to easily accommodate perishable goods.

- 42 loading docks built to support rail cargo for inland distribution and equipped to handle high volumes of import and export, offering seamless multimodal transportation solutions.
- Proximity to the Port of Savannah, one of the most connected ports in the US, providing direct access to rapidly growing markets across the world.
