The Goal Following developments in Dallas and Phoenix, Cold Summit set its sights on the Chicago market. The developer specializes in cold storage construction, such as refrigerated warehouses, low-temperature distribution centers, automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS), food grade production facilities, and ultra-low temperature pharmaceutical storage facilities.
