16 Mar 2026 CW Team

The chairman said that Bihar represented an important market as the company strengthened its presence in emerging consumption centres across eastern India. He said improving infrastructure, strong agricultural output and growing demand for temperature-controlled supply chains made the state attractive for cold chain investment. He added that the Patna facility would not only serve local demand but would also function as a key node for regional connectivity and more efficient movement of temperature-sensitive products across neighbouring markets.

The expansion forms part of a broader strategy to reinforce the company's role in strengthening India's cold chain infrastructure across key consumption and production hubs. Snowman currently operates a nationwide network with a capacity of 160,230 pallets across 22 cities, including Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Delhi, Kolkata and Pune. The Patna facility is presented as another milestone in the company's growth trajectory and is expected to improve service levels for temperature-sensitive supply chains in the region.

The new facility's 6,500-pallet capacity is designed to support cold chain requirements for multiple industry segments and to accommodate varied temperature profiles within a single site. The company confirmed that the development was being effected under appropriate regulatory filings and disclosures to relevant stock exchanges. Operational readiness and phased commissioning will be aligned to market demand and logistical connectivity in the eastern corridor. For investor queries, the company has made available a dedicated investor relations contact.
