growth and positions the company to expand its warehouse network and
capabilities to deliver innovative solutions that further support the
temperature-controlled supply chain.
“I was honored to ring the Opening Bell as we celebrate Americold’s
recent IPO on the New York Stock Exchange. As the first publicly traded
owner-operator dedicated to temperature-controlled infrastructure, we
believe the combination of our high quality portfolio of mission
critical assets, technology driven platform and deep and experienced

industry leader,” said Boehler.
