Being in the service for around 50 years as a complete logistics and supply chain provider allows Crystal Logistic Cool Chain Ltd to speak for itself. Initially known as M/S Harayana Transport Company, this company started its operations in the year 1962 under the able leadership of Mr Murari Lal Agarwal. In the year 2002, Crystal started its cold chain operations and today it is the leader in offering a wide range of solutions in the cold chain logistics industry.

Starting as a transportation company, Crystal began its cold chain transportation services with only one refrigerated truck and today it has 12 branches and more than 150 refrigerated trucks. These refrigerated trucks take care to store different items at the temperatures they should be stored. Ice creams, frozen foods and frozen vegetables are stored at frozen temperatures (-18 to -25 degrees Celsius); pharmaceuticals, yoghurt and butter are stored at chilled temperature (-1 to +4 degrees Celsius) and chocolates, eggs are stored at ambient temperatures (+18 degrees Celsius).

Undertaking both primary and secondary distribution, the company’s clientele today includes some of the bigger names in the processed food and pharmaceutical industries. The diligent working of Crystal over the years has now brought it the ISO 9001-2008 certification and it is among the few companies in the country now providing transportation services across all volumes and temperature ranges. Crystal understands it better that to have an overall profit, a high level of intricacies must be handled in transporting food, beverages and pharmaceutical products. In offering its transportation services, this company takes care of climate and farming stipulations, complies with protection and supervision obligations, assures carrier hygiene and selects the best routes and tracks.

Transporting raw foods like vegetables, fish, fruits and meats involves switching hands frequently, and transferring these items to the vans and finally stocking them in the repository racks needs careful handling. All these steps that these items go through can bring in contamination and food-born ailments, and to prevent these occurrences, Crystal maintains utmost transparency in its transportation services and also quickly catalogues the spoiled foods. Be it refrigerated warehousing (cold storages) or refrigerated transportation through its refrigerated trucks, Crystal has set the benchmark among its competitors.

Innovative technology is at the core of Crystal’s transportation through its refrigerated trucks, and in its storage of food and its passing on for packaging. And Crystal gives due concern to the nutritional goodness and healthy aspects of the foods that it handles. Years of dedicated service has brought Crystal many awards and recognitions and going by their quality of service, it is sure to get many more laurels in the coming years.
