Emergent Cold LatAm, which acquired Bodegas Frías on 16 May 2022, is the leading provider of chilled and frozen 3PL storage (its own description in the release): ~20,000 pallet positions across 3 sites — Palín (Escuintla, on the corridor to Puerto Quetzal), Villa Nueva and Quetzaltenango — with land available for expansion; Bodegas Frías was founded in 2006. The figures were confirmed in the original Business Wire release.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
