Typical Cold Chain Network

The Cold Chain Network is divided and spread all over India under the following categories of industries related to the agriculture and medical sectors:

Production Zone: Fields where fruits and vegetables are grown. The Cold Chain Agencies and Retailers procure these produces.

Pre-cooling Centers: Produce is brought and pre-cooled for a short period and prepared for long distance transport.

Refrigerated Transport: Reefer trucks are used to transport food products at “controlled temperature (CA)” from the pre-cooling center to the cold storages. The size of these trucks could vary from one ton to more than 15 tons.

Cold Storage: These are centrally located warehouses built to store perishable fruits and vegetables for a longer duration. It depends on factors such as product type, how long the product needs to be stored and what use it is going to be put to. The product is stored at a sub-zero temperature using methods such as “chilled storage”, “deep freezer storage”, “controlled atmosphere (CA) storage”, etc. All these methods slow down the ripening process of the food products and enhance its shelf-life.

Processing Plant: Food products are taken to a processing plant where these are converted into “processed foods” such as jams, jellies, pickles or juices.

Wholesalers / Retailers: Food products are transferred to “wholesaler” or a “retailer”. This transportation is again done in reefer trucks. At the retail store, these food products are again stored at low temperatures in large refrigeration units, to delay the process of decay.

Export: Finally export of food products is typically done in refrigerated containers in ships.

Importance of Cold Chain

The development of Cold Chain system in India began in the year 1965. Since then, it has assumed greater importance to prevent perishing of the products. The agriculture, dairy, pharmaceutical, processed food and industrial sectors realized the below mentioned of benefits and advantages of promoting and developing Cold Chain system in India – due to which private sector has also come forward to lend a helping hand in its evolution:

a) It ensures better product quality in terms of nutritional value, colour and texture. b) Bacterial formation does not take place under proper cold storage conditions c) Maintenance of hygiene d) Humidity and moisture are retained in the products for longer duration e) Longer storage of product results in extended shelf-life of the products f) Value of money – as wastage through spoiling of products is prevented g) It encouraged development of packaging sector; this in turn facilitated easier transportation, longer

shelf-life, better presentation of the products and easier handling. h) Improved packaging has given rise to improved traceability of the products. i) It has resulted in better handling and hygiene practices j) Inventory management and automation has become easier k) It permits palletized handling and racking l) Increased demand for refrigerated storage and transport has resulted in the growth of refrigerated

transport industry.

Indian Government initiatives

The Government of India has recognized the need to nurture the Cold Chain Industry and has introduced several incentives to achieve its objectives. Some of the incentives given by the Indian Government to encourage the Cold Chain Industry are:

1. Budget 2011-2012 provided infrastructure status to the cold chain sector. This opens up the sector for perquisites like “viability gap funding”. The Indian Budget also exempted air-conditioning equipments and refrigeration panels used in cold chain infrastructure, including conveyor belts, from excise duty. It also extended excise duty exemption to conveyor belts and equipment used in cold storages, “mandis” and warehouses.

2. Budget 2010-2011 proposed a concessional import duty of 5% with full exemption from service taxto set up and expand cold chains to preserve farm produce as well as milk, meat and poultry products. The proposal also included duty-free import of refrigeration unit, which is required to make refrigerated vans or trucks. It also exempted trailers and semi-trailers used in agriculture from excise duty.

3. Budget 2009-2010 Government of India introduced tax benefits for companies making investments in setting up cold chain facilities.

4. Apart from access to external commercial borrowings, 100% FDI (Foreign Direct Investment), the cold chain industry enjoyed the provision of rebate of up to 25% of project costs involved in setting up cold storage facilities provided by the Government under the Capital Investment Subsidy Scheme.

These initiatives from the Indian Government have been very encouraging for the industry as a whole and have complemented the efforts of the private sector in strengthening India’s cold chain infrastructure.

Growth Drivers

The key drivers in the growth of the cold chain sector in India are the following:

a. Rise in organized Retail chain: With growing demand of fruits and vegetables and rising income levels of people, organized retailing is going to be the strongest driver of cold chain sector in future. Many players such as “Bharti-Walmart” and “Aditya Birla” are investing heavily in building a strong infrastructure for the preservation of produce for long period of time.

b. Growth of Food Processing Sector: Several Mega Food Parks have been established by the Indian Government in order to develop cold chain sector in India.

c. Government initiatives: Several initiatives discussed above attract investors into the development of cold chain sector.

6

d. Shift towards Horticulture crops: Farmers are moving towards cultivation of horticultural crops which require refrigerated storage.

e. Demand of Pharmaceutical Industry: Indian vaccine market is growing at a rate of 25 to 30% per annum. Vaccines require temperature controlled storage right from manufacturing stage till usage point; it makes cold chain management imperative.

Current Scenario of Cold Chain Industry

Projected growth of Indian Cold Storage Market (in billion INR – Indian Rupees) is given in the table below:

Calendar Year Value in billion INR

2009 102

2010 119

2011 139

CAGR (Compounded Annual Growth Rate) for the period indicated above: 21.1%.

Calendar Year Value in billion INR (estimated)

2013 236

2015 400

2017 640

CAGR (Compounded Annual Growth Rate) for the period indicated above: 28.3%.

1) Close to two-third of India’s population is dependent on agriculture for its livelihood. 2) India has a total of around 6000 cold storages with a capacity of 24.45 million metric tons. The food

market is estimated at over US$182 billion, and accounts for about 20% of the total Indian retail market. 3) According to a 2005 report by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Indian food market is set to almost

double by the year 2025, to reach US$ 344 billion at a CAGR of over 4%. 4) India is the second largest producer of fruits and vegetables in the world with annual vegetable produce

of around 85 million tons (9.1% of global production) and annual fruit produce of around 45 million tons (8.4% of global production).

5) Despite the high production, India’s contribution to the world market is below 1%, in contrast to China, which accounts for over 20% of the exports to the world market.

6) Out of approximately 130 million tons of fruit and vegetable produce, nearly 40% gets wasted. 7) India is the largest producer of milk in the world, producing close to 100 million tons and accounting for

nearly 17% of the global production. About 35% of the produced milk is processed. More than 10% of the annual milk production is lost because of inadequate storage facilities.

8) Over 80% of cold storages are used for storing potatoes and potato seeds. Potatoes are generally stored for 6 months and cold stores remain idle for the remaining period.

9) Erratic electricity supply permits only 8 to 10 hours of operation per day. 10) Absence of Government regulations on Technical Standards & Protocols. 11) Ignorance on maintaining appropriate commodity storage conditions due to lack of trained manpower.

Challenges

The key challenges to the growth of this sector are:

1. High energy consumption cost: Operating costs for the cold storage business in India are approximately Rs. 80 to Rs. 90 per cubic ft. (foot) per year as compared to Rs. 40 per cubic ft. per year in the West. Energy expenses alone make up about 30% of the total expenses for the cold storage industry in India compared to 10% in the West. These factors make the business of setting up of cold storages a high entry barrier.

2. Rising real estate costs: A fully integrated cold storage facility with one million cubic ft. of storage space will require an area of an acre to build, which could cost between Rs. 10 million to Rs. 15 million, constituting 10 to 12% of the project cost. Cooling units are not mobile units, and so location becomes a key factor, and with India’s small land holdings, getting a sufficiently large tract of land to build cold storage unit becomes a major additional constraint.

3. Lack of logistical support: Cold chain industry in India is fragmented and it will require heavy investment in building technology-enabled cold storage facilities to cover entire value chain from procurement to transportation in refrigerated trucks to retail outlets in cities.

4. Large and unpredictable variations in quality.

5. Uneven distribution of capacity: A majority of investment in setting up cold storages in India has been in States such as Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Punjab and West Bengal. Secondly, cold storages that have been set up can cater to single commodities only which are a big bottleneck.

6. Power supply in rural areas is unreliable as the transmission lines are not readily available for most rural areas; production and availability of energy for the rural areas is short. Under these circumstances, to cater to the industrial hubs, the agglomerations and commercial establishments, huge units of electricity is required to be made available. This results in frequent and long hours of power cuts.

7. The number of “reefer trucks” available at the disposal of truck transporters is very small in number. As a result prioritization of supplies is not taking place. The big and powerful entities always get the priority to get their supplies in good order and on time whereas the common entities are made to suffer with poor quality supplies or made to wait for grueling long times for receiving their supplies.

8. The trucking industry in India is largely fragmented and in the hands of small truck operators. Estimates suggest that nearly 70% of the truck owners in India own between 1 to 5 trucks. As a result of disaggregated ownership, there is fierce competition amongst operators leading to truck owners resorting to over-loading to recover investments. Also due to the limited investment capacity of these operators, technology in terms of better vehicles (average age of trucks in India is over 10 years), tracking, safety, etc. has been slow to percolate.

9. With the Indian Railways too, the situation is no different. Due to the adoption of populist “Railway Budget” every year (more for political exigency), a proper provision for acquisition of “reefer railway wagons” has not been made at all. Since the passenger fares across the board were never increased and the freight charges for essential commodities (read “food products”) were increased only nominally to maintain a forced clamp down on inflation, there was no scope for allocating funds for this purpose as there was no increase in revenue to a substantial extent. For industrial products such as steel, coal, minerals, etc. the freight charges are very high. This is being done to subsidize the passenger fares. This in a way indirectly fuels inflation as the cost of infrastructure development, generation of energy, etc. rapidly increase.

8

10. Due to the same reason, “railway storage facilities” were never augmented or modernized. The condition in these storage yards is pathetic and inconvenient. This leads to considerable damage and ruin to the products meant for supplies to end-consumers. The lack of these facilities also leads to inordinate delays and an uncertain length of waiting period.

11. Despite the significant requirement of “cold storages” from the retail sector, pharmaceutical sector, chemical sector and the farm sector, where (farm sector) it is estimated that upto 40% of the fruits and vegetables grown in India get wasted, the sector needs to grow much faster to meet the needs. Estimates on cold chain facilities in India put the number of cold storages at around 5400 with a capacity of 24 million metric tons. However, nearly 60% of these facilities are meant for storage of potato crop. Also with the poor electricity condition in India, the cost of operating such facilities is very high. With government intervention and various sops, the situation is slowly improving but many challenges remain.

12. With emerging requirements of integrated logistics, provision of transportation hub, value addition, etc. large logistics parks were sought to be developed. However, as with other areas, the number of such facilities continues to remain much less than the requirement. Consolidation of large land parcels is a significant issue hampering their development. Other issues include the lack of recognition of the concept of logistics park by the State governments thereby obtaining permission for setting up such facilities become all the more cumbersome.

Future Cold Chain Industry

Private ventures need to move in and tap this sector to its full potential. Major players are part of larger logistics outfits such as:

Gateway Distriparks

Travel Corporation of India Ltd. (TCI)

Container Corporation of India Ltd.

Gati Kintetsu Express Pvt. Ltd. These companies have been growing steadily in scale. With the average capacity utilization in the industry ranging between a dismal 30% to a profitable 75%, the unit revenue potential of a cold storage facility is governed largely by its investment in technology and overall service standards. There is a scope of public-private partnerships (PPP) in the sector as well as greater involvement of railways and airports in strengthening the cold chain infrastructure. Additional measures are also being taken up by the Indian government to help this sector in the following areas:

1. Help in acquisition of land to set up facilities for cold storage, food processing, etc. 2. Examine reducing FDI restriction in Retail. 3. Speed up the introduction of GST (Goods and Services Tax), which will generally help the development

of large centrally located warehouses.

FAO – Food and Agriculture Organization Study and recommendations

on Supply Chain to cut food wastage

Tons of fruit and vegetables rot each year before reaching consumers due to poor handling and storage facilities. Delhi’s “Azadpur Subzi Mandi” is one of Asia’s biggest produce wholesale hubs, a massive distribution centre for fresh fruit and vegetables cultivated across India to be dispatched to consumers in all directions. Each day, huge truckloads of produce arrive, are unloaded and then auctioned by traders to other middlemen, who repack the food in other trucks to be hauled away to far-flung places for eventual sale to consumers.

9

The fresh produce carried on these long journeys is rarely cooled or shaded, but rather subjected – especially in summers – to the blistering sun, creating high rates of spoilage. The conditions at this major wholesale market, which has changed little in decades, reflect one of the biggest threats to food security in India, especially as the pace of urbanization requires more food to be brought to cities. With India’s farm-to-fork networks still dominated by politically influential traditional traders and small shops, the country has struggled to modernize its food supply chain and attract large-scale investment into cold-storage, refrigerated trucks and other modern logistics. As a result, much of India’s agricultural output rots – or seriously degrades – before reaching consumers, even as hunger and malnutrition remain. “The issues we have with food security are traceable to issues we have around supply chain bottlenecks, transport and storage,” says Sanjeevan Bajaj, chief executive of the Quality Forum of the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI). According to estimates by the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), about 40 per cent of India’s fresh fruit and vegetables – worth an annual $8.3bn or so – perishes before reaching consumers. Each year, some 21million metric tons of wheat, especially grain – an amount almost equal to Australia’s total annual production – rots in India because of improper storage in the custody of the government-controlled Food Corporation of India (FCI). India is not unique in the level of its losses. According to the FAO, 42 per cent of fruit and vegetables grown in the Asia-Pacific region, and up to 20 per cent of the grain, never reach consumers because of poor post-harvest handling. But the magnitude of food losses in India dwarfs those in other countries, given the country’s size and the scale of its farm output, while the context in which this food goes to waste is also far more serious. According to official figures, about half of Indian children under the age of five are chronically malnourished, resulting in stunted growth, while 20 per cent suffer from acute malnutrition, with visible wasting. In recent years, Indian food prices have risen at double-digit levels, pinching the budgets of many working-class urban families in a country where food still accounts for an average of 31 per cent of monthly household expenditure. India’s Congress-led government has acknowledged the importance of attracting more private investment to modernize the country’s food-supply chain to reduce wastage. In 2012, Delhi decided to permit up to 51 per cent foreign direct investment in super-markets and other modern food shops – which many say is the necessary front-end to make a modern food-supply chain work. “If you can aggregate demand, you can aggregate supply, build scale and make sure investments in the middle pay off,” says Bijou Kurien, former president and chief executive of Reliance Retail, one of India’s largest modern retailers. Yet foreign retail giants remain wary of India, because of numerous conditions, including a requirement to source 30 per cent of their goods from small enterprises, and invest at least half their capital in back-end infrastructure. Many Indian States have also said they would bar foreign-owned stores, closing off large parts of the potential market. The Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which is widely expected to lead a new government after the upcoming parliamentary elections, is firmly opposed to foreign investment in super-markets.

10

Currently, just 3 per cent of India’s food and groceries are purchased through modern retail stores – including Indian owned – inhibiting investment in back-end logistics. India has developed some modern supply chains linked to food processing companies, such as Nestlé, Unilever, Pepsi and Del Monte. But these still handle a fraction of the country’s perishable food. According to a recent study by the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) in Kolkata, cold storage facilities are available for just 10 per cent of India’s perishable produce – and are mostly used for potatoes – to meet India’s robust demand for chips. The study estimates that India needs storage facilities for another 370 million metric tons of perishable produce. But with so many obstacles confronting private groups – including a fragmented, tightly controlled market, and various government restrictions – such investments are unlikely to materialize rapidly. “We have a modern system of food supply, but it is only addressing those who are at the higher level of income,” says Rosa Rolle, a senior agro-industry and post-harvest officer at the FAO’s regional office. “The mass of people are dependent on traditional food systems for subsistence and livelihood. Policies have to be working on both systems in parallel.”

Conclusion

The industry will grow leaps and bounds in the coming years but that will depend upon the quantum of investment flowing into it. Eyes are on big business houses and corporate who are willing to get into retail sector to create a backup for them and willingness of the customers to pay premium on higher quality products will ultimately lead to the growth of cold chain industry in India.

Dedicated Indian Railways Industrial Freight Corridors

Indian Railways is one of the largest in the world in terms of network and kilometer length – along-side China, Russia and the USA. Due to large population, the Indian Railways is required to operate very large number of train services every day. This has led to choking of the routes. Every day the Indian Railways is transporting over 3 million people across the length and breadth of India. Due to choking of the routes, the goods movements are hampered and the deliveries of goods are invariably delayed. Since passenger trains get priority over the goods trains, the traversing speed of goods trains is around 25 Km per hour. The density of train movements has not enabled the Indian Railways to renew the railway tracks which have been in operation since the independence of India. Special efforts are being made to renew the tracks to ward off occurrence of train accidents and also to enable the increased running speed of the train services. Passenger trains are at present operating at 75 Km per hour which is very low as compared to the train services in other countries. For industrial and economic development, rapid movements of goods and essential inputs for the industrial sector are very necessary. With this in view, the Indian government decided to create the Indian Rail Freight Corridor. This will be a special track and will run parallel to the existing railway network. But the stations for the freight corridor will be kept 30 to 40 Kms away from the passenger train stations. At present the stations for the passengers as well as for freight are at the same location. It leads to a lot of congestion in the stations. This practice will be changed rapidly. The tracks for freight corridor will be specially barricaded so that goods traffic can move at high speed. In this context the Indian government has created 2 specialized Agencies for the establishment of the railway freight corridor. They are: Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor Development Corporation Limited (DMICDC) Room No. 341-B (3rd Floor), Hotel Ashok, Diplomatic Enclave, 50-B, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi – 110 021 Tel.: 011-26118884 – 88

Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India Limited (DFCCIL) Pragati Maidan Metro Station Building Complex (5th Floor) New Delhi – 110 001 Tel.: 011/23454600, 23379820, 23454890 Fax: 011/23454605, 23454701 E-mail: contact@dfcc.co.in Web: www.dfccil.in Contact: Mr. R.K. Gupta, Managing Director Tel.: 011/23379820; Fax: 011/23454605 E-mail: rkgupta@dfcc.co.in The DMICDC will only create the “Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC)”. This special track will run from Dadri (near Delhi in the State of Haryana) to Jawaharlal Nehru Port (JNPT) in the satellite town near Mumbai. This special freight corridor will pass through 6 Indian States, viz., Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat and Maharashtra. The stations will be located at Dadri, Pirthala (Tughlakabad), Phulera, Marwar, Palanpur, Sabarmati, Makarpura (Vadodara), Gothangam, Vasai Road, JNPT Port. Once this special corridor is established, it will provide easy connectivity to industrial hubs located in Manesar Bawal Region (Haryana), Pithampur Dhar Mhow Region, Indore, Ujjain (all in Madhya Pradesh), Shendra Bidkin Industrial Region and Dighi Port Industrial Area (in Maharashtra). This Delhi-Mumbai freight corridor will be executed jointly by DMICDC and “Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India Ltd. (DFCCIL)”. The Indian Railways too would provide the necessary assistance in the matter of the execution of the project. Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India Ltd. (DFCCIL) is working on a much larger scale. It is making the freight corridor in the form of a golden quadrilateral. For the railway freight corridor project, the Indian government has obtained financial assistance from Japan. 30% of the capital goods meant for the project must be purchased from Japan. DFCCIL will be constructing the railway freight corridor from Ludhiana (in Punjab) to Dhankuni (in West Bengal). This is known as the “eastern corridor”. It will pass through the States of Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand and West Bengal. The total route length will be 1839 Km. The “western corridor” will have a route length of 1483 Km. It will run from Dadri (in Haryana) to JNPT Port (in Maharashtra). This route will pass through the States of Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. This project will be executed in cooperation with DMICDC. The other railway freight corridors in the pipeline are:

Dhankuni (West Bengal) to Chennai (Tamil Nadu)

Chennai (Tamil Nadu) to JNPT Port (Maharashtra)

JNPT Port (Maharashtra) to Dhankuni (West Bengal)

Ludhiana (Punjab) to Chennai (Tamil Nadu). These projects will also be executed by DFCCIL. The Indian Railways will be actively involved in all of these projects. At the moment the process of land acquisition, environmental clearance from Ministry of Environment & Forests, Clearance from Wild Life Department and the Ministry of Urban Development are being completed. The “eastern corridor” and “western corridor” projects will be commenced in the year 2014 and will be completed by 2017. These 2 corridors are expected to be put in operation by the year 2017.

16

The other 4 corridors indicated above will be completed in 6 years’ time from 2015. All these corridors will be running parallel to the existing railway network. Most modern infrastructure will be provided to these corridors to enable rapid movement of goods traffic. The Business Advisory Company, JCurve Ventures Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, was engaged by the “PHD Chamber of Commerce & Industry (PHDCCI), New Delhi” for the preparation of the study with the title “Fast Track to Reform – Policy and Execution for enabling Multi-Modality – Released at “PHD Global Rail Convention 2014 – Indian Railways: Towards New Horizons – 28 March 2014”. “JCurve” was also actively associated in the organization of the “PHD Global Rail Convention 2014” in New Delhi on 28 March 2014.
