South Africa’s poultry industry plays a vital role in ensuring national food security, nutrition and affordability. As one of the country’s largest agricultural sectors, poultry provides millions of South Africans with a reliable, high-quality source of protein; and supports thousands of jobs across farming, processing, logistics and retail.
With local demand steadily increasing, the importance of a dependable cold chain cannot be overstated. Every link; from the moment birds leave the farm to when products reach supermarket shelves; must operate with precision, safety and speed.
That’s where we step in.
Keeping the Cold Chain Unbroken
Poultry logistics is a race against time and temperature. Maintaining the right conditions throughout transport and storage is critical to ensuring freshness, preventing spoilage and upholding food safety standards.
At CCH, our facilities are specifically designed for high-volume, temperature-sensitive products like poultry. From blast freezing and bulk storage to distribution, our operations maintain strict temperature control and hygiene protocols in line with industry best practices and export requirements.
Temperature-monitored fleets ensures poultry is transported efficiently across the supply chain, supporting both domestic and export markets. Every shipment is tracked, ensuring full visibility and traceability from warehouse to retailer.
Partnering for Performance and Food Security
CCH works closely with producers, processors and distributors to streamline logistics and optimise efficiency. Our cold storage and secondary distribution solutions are tailored to the unique needs of the poultry sector; where turnaround time, product integrity and reliability determine success.
By ensuring consistent product flow, CCH helps reduce waste, manage costs and maintain the steady supply of affordable poultry that keeps South African households fed.
Innovation That Strengthens the Chain
As demand and regulatory requirements evolve, CCH continues to invest in technology, infrastructure and training to strengthen cold chain resilience. Our systems provide customers with the confidence that their products are being handled under the right conditions while our teams on the ground ensure operations run smoothly, even during high-demand seasons.
For the poultry industry, that reliability is more than a convenience, it’s a competitive advantage.
Delivering Trust, Consistency and Care
From bulk storage to secondary distribution, CCH’s integrated cold logistics ensures that every step of the poultry journey meets the highest standards of quality and safety.
For consumers, this means fresh, affordable poultry on supermarket shelves. For our customers, it means a logistics partner who understands the urgency, scale and importance of their operations.
Because at CCH, when it comes to poultry, we never wing it.
