Institutional sources pointed out that the promulgation of the "opinions" is based on the "14th five year plan" cold chain logistics development plan issued in December last year, which is intended to promote the construction of local cold chain transportation facilities and networks.
In recent years, the scale of cold chain hardware facilities in China has maintained a rapid growth trend. According to the data from the cold chain Committee of China Federation of things, from 2015 to 2021, the capacity of China's cold storage increased from 37.1 million tons to 74.98 million tons, and there is still much room for development. For example, in terms of cold chain circulation rate, the current cold chain circulation rate of meat and vegetables in China is less than 30% and 20%, with an average of more than 90% in developed countries; In terms of per capita cold storage capacity, in 2018, China's per capita cold storage capacity was 0.13 m3 / person, while the average in developed countries was 0.437 m3 / person; In addition, the cold storage is relatively concentrated in East China, the number of cold storage in other regions is relatively lacking, and the imbalance between regions still exists.
Since the end of 2021, the heavy policies of the cold chain logistics industry have been implemented continuously. In January this year, the national development and Reform Commission issued the implementation plan for the construction of national backbone cold chain logistics bases, which made systematic arrangements for the layout and construction of national backbone cold chain logistics bases during the 14th Five Year Plan period; In February, the special plan for the development of public Shenzhen Agricultural Products Group Co.Ltd(000061) cold chain logistics in the "14th five year plan" of the National Federation of supply and marketing cooperatives was released to lay out the cold chain logistics in the Shenzhen Agricultural Products Group Co.Ltd(000061) field.

Infrastructure construction maintains the high outlook of the cold chain industry, technical equipment upgrading promotes the upgrading of cold chain equipment, and jointly drives the demand for relevant cold chain equipment.
According to the 2021 annual report released by several cold chain logistics stocks, the overall performance of the sector is bright.
