AR Racking installs a cold store for Fandicosta in Galicia

Fandiscosta is one of the main producers of frozen, refrigerated and precooked wild fish that captures, transforms and stores the product. The company is also a reference in supply capacity and in using the most advanced technology in deep-freezing.

AR Racking, the company specialized in designing, manufacturing, calculating and installing industrial storage systems, has renovated the Fandicosta warehouse in Moaña, Pontevedra, two years after the fishery lost half of its facilities in a devastating fire.

AR Racking has designed and installed a storage system based on mobile bases, a system where the pallet racks are placed on chassis or mobile bases guided through fixed tracks on the floor. It is a high density storage system, perfect for cold storage.

Thanks to this installation Fandicosta has increased its storage capacity up to 12,184 euro-pallets. This capacity is more aligned with its daily production, which is around 150,000 kg of frozen, refrigerated and precooked fish.

Ricardo García Moscoso, AR Racking’s commercial representative in Galicia, emphasizes that "the increase in cold storage capacity is one of the most notable characteristics of this installation. It optimizes Fandicosta’s logistics process and makes them more efficient, thus making them able to respond to the demands of each market".

For Javier Orge, director of the Fandicosta plant in Moaña, "for us it was fundamental to work with a company with a high knowledge of the storage sector for refrigerated and frozen products, and to work in accordance with our sustainability and quality commitments that our customers around the world value so much”.
