Facilities Overview
Size Really Does Matter in an Industry as Big as Food Service and Manufacturing.
The economies of scale are never so apparent as in food service and agribusiness,
where rail and truck transportation open up regional and national territories
to ambitious growers and producers. Located in Vineland, southern New Jersey,
Safeway Freezer Storage serves businesses around the corner and around the
world.
Safeway’s Nearly 7 Million Cubic Feet of Freezer and Cooler Storage Is Really Big.
Our plant has 48 enclosed and refrigerated shipping/receiving bays. There are 6 million cubic feet of multi-temperature freezer space, plus 900,000 cubic feet of cooler space (+28-40º F). Space is 85% racked; 15% free-stacked. Dual rail sidings are capable of accepting 12 supercars.
The plant is served daily by Conrail for Norfolk Southern and CSX, by Safeway Logistics (our in-house licensed freight broker), and by Safeway Distributors (our onsite fleet of refrigerated trailers and tractors). Thermostatically controlled rooftop refrigeration units use non-polluting Freon. Inventory is checked 24/7 by a centralized monitoring system. Warehouse racks are inventoried with Maves software.
