Ashby-de-la-Zouch, UK, 10 October, 2019 – CEVA Logistics today officially opened its

attended by 50+ customers. The Chill Hub is a state-of-the-art operation strategically
located to provide maximum customer benefit through its ability to manage all elements
of the process at one site.

Within the multi-temperature 10,000 sqm facility are up to 10,000 pallet positions featuring
seven independent chambers capable of operating at all temperature ranges from -25°C
through to +16°C. This means chilled, frozen and temperature specific items can be
accommodated.

Dedicated areas will handle pharmaceuticals, fresh and frozen produce, beverage products
and flowers as well as other goods requiring temperature specific handling and storage.

A full range of value-added services including Labelling, Boxing, Re-palletising, Price coding,
Tagging and Kitting are all available through the Chill Hub.

CEVA’s new Chill Hub has the additional benefit of a deep-sea port on the same site as the
logistics park where the hub is located. The UK’s number one reefer hub, London Gateway
has links to over 110 ports in 60 different countries and its dockside proximity to the warehouse
means shunting can take as little as two hours.

rail connections, our best in class warehouse management systems and direct port access,
the Chill Hub is a powerful demonstration of the synergies between CEVA Logistics and CMA

shipper customers, providing a faster delivery of goods through an energy-efficient building.
We can also give full visibility and control of the entire inbound operation through the Chill
Hub.”
