“It’s been a great year for Vertical Cold, with expansion in new and existing markets. More importantly, it’s been a great year for our customers, for whom we continue to help drive supply chain value, and for our team members, who are committed to servicing our customers safely and efficiently,” said West Hutchison, president and CEO of Vertical Cold Storage. “Our growth platform is strong. There will be continued growth through acquisition, expansion, and development in pursuit of our goal to have a national network that embraces the complexities of our customers, which many of our competitors avoid or price their way out of.”
