Companies working with goods that require temperature control sooner or later face a choice: to build their own refrigerated warehouse or to rent a ready-made facility from a professional operator.
At first glance, owning your own warehouse may seem like a worthwhile investment. But when you consider the risks, timing, cost of ownership and flexibility, renting from companies like KPPP is a more sensible and cost-effective solution.
Quick start – no capital expenditure
Construction of a refrigerated warehouse is:
12−24 months of design and erection,
millions of rubles for refrigeration, docks, panels and security systems,
processing of permits and approvals.
Renting allows you to start work in 1 day — without investing in infrastructure. In KRES you get:
ready chambers,
access to the warehouse 24/7,
WMS system and staff support.
Multi-temperature mode for any product
Your own warehouse may not be versatile: today you store chilled food, tomorrow you store frozen food, and the day after that you store pharma. KRES offers multi-temperature warehouses with a range of:
+10 °C to -25 °C,
with storage areas, pre-chamber and fast reloading.
The flexibility of the lease allows to adapt the conditions to specific goods — from fish and meat to medicines and cosmetics.
Geography and logistics
You should build your own warehouse where it is convenient for you. But it is not always convenient for the customer, partner or transportation company. KRES has complexes:
in St. Petersburg — within the city limits, with convenient access to the Ring Road,
in Novosibirsk — near a major transportation hub, with 64 docks and fast unloading.
This is critical for fast logistics and reduction of transportation costs.
Secure storage and personnel – already included
If you are building a warehouse:
you look for personnel,
implement processes,
train logisticians and storekeepers.
KRES already offers responsible storage:
receipt, accounting, shipment of goods,
control of balances,
document management via 1C and API.
Safety, certification, technology
You will be responsible for:
Fire Safety,
refrigeration,
HACCP, SanPiN, ISO, temperature reports.
KRES has already implemented:
automatic temperature and humidity control systems,
A warehouse is a fixed space. And business requires flexibility. With us you can:
increase or reduce the area depending on the season,
create a prefabricated order from several cells,
use the "cross-storage" service between SPb and NSC.
Renting a cold storage facility means: ✅ no capex ✅ access to professional infrastructure ✅ flexibility and scalability ✅ 24/7 logistics ✅ security and digital processes
KRES provides full-service A+ level refrigeration facilities in St. Petersburg and Novosibirsk.
