Cold chain through Alaska
Alaska Cargo and Cold Storage, a joint venture of industrialist Chad Brownstein and McKinley Capital Management, and the State of Alaska have concluded a 55-year lease agreement at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC), marking a major milestone in the development of a more than 65,000-sqm, climate-controlled warehouse facility. With 920,000 cbm of capacity, the facility will provide ANC with a critical piece of infrastructure at the world’s sixth-busiest cargo airport.
Chad Brownstein: "The facility will serve as the cold storage gateway between the Americas, Asia, and Europe, and further integrate Alaska into the global cold chain." The facility will be constructed in phases. The first phase will be roughly 17,650 sqm with plans to begin construction in the second half of this year. (ah)
