Americold Ireland received certification from Ireland’s Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine to export beef, pork, and lamb to the United States, making it the only dedicated third‑party cold storage provider in Ireland with this capability.
The certification, granted on 28 October 2025, enables Irish meat producers to access the U.S. market through a compliant logistics pathway and is expected to increase utilization of the Dublin facility by a significant margin.
In 2025, Americold Ireland completed five AA‑rated BRC Global Standard audits across its Monaghan, Lurgan, and Dublin sites, the highest possible rating for food safety and quality. The company also passed the McDonald’s Distributor Quality Management Process audit, recognized as one of the most rigorous assessments in the foodservice industry.
Rob Chambers, who became CEO on 1 September 2025, highlighted that these achievements reflect Americold’s commitment to operational excellence and regulatory alignment, reinforcing confidence among customers and investors.
The certification aligns with Americold’s broader global strategy, which includes partnerships with Canadian Pacific Kansas City and DP World to build global cold‑chain infrastructure. With a global footprint of 230 facilities and 1.5 billion refrigerated cubic feet, Americold is positioned to support international food flows and drive growth in the temperature‑controlled logistics sector.
