About Mid Eastern Cold Storage

Mid Eastern Cold Storage facility in Rosenhayn, NJ

Built from the Ground Up. Kept in the Family.

Mid Eastern Cold Storage was founded in 1978 with a simple belief: that food producers and distributors deserve a cold storage partner they can truly trust: one that knows their product, picks up the phone, and does what they say they're going to do.

Four-plus decades later, that belief still drives everything we do. We're still family-owned and operated. Our leadership team works in the facility, knows our customers by name, and takes personal accountability for every pallet in our care.

We've grown considerably over the years, expanding our facility, adding certifications, and building out our service capabilities, but we've been deliberate about not growing in ways that would compromise the responsiveness and accountability that define who we are.

When you store with Mid Eastern, you're not a number in a national operator's system. You're our customer. And we mean that the old-fashioned way.

The Values That Drive Us

These aren't words on a wall. They're the principles that guide how we operate every single day.

Integrity

We do what we say. If something goes wrong, and occasionally something does, we own it, communicate it, and fix it. No excuses, no blame-shifting.

Accountability

As a family-owned business, accountability isn't a slogan. It's personal. Leadership is reachable, decisions are made quickly, and problems don't get lost in a hierarchy.

Quality

Every certification we carry is earned and maintained, not just on paper. Our AIB, USDA, and FDA standing reflects the standard we hold ourselves to every day.

Partnership

We're not a transactional vendor. We invest in understanding our customers' businesses so we can be better partners: anticipating needs, flagging issues early, and adapting to change.

Stewardship

We take care of your product like it's our own inventory. Proper rotation, careful handling, and accurate record-keeping aren't extras. They're the baseline.

Adaptability

Our customers' needs change, seasonally, cyclically, and strategically. We've built a business that can flex with you instead of forcing you into a rigid program.

Our Certifications & Compliance

Every certification we hold is earned and actively maintained, not just checked off at audit time. Mid Eastern Cold Storage holds its own AIB, USDA, and FDA credentials. F&S Fresh Foods, our affiliated IQF processor, operates under a GFSI-recognized food safety program.

AIB Certified

AIB International Consolidated Standards for Food Distribution Centers, a rigorous third-party audit and certification covering food safety, pest control, sanitation, and operational practices.

GFSI Recognized (F&S Fresh Foods)

Organic Capable

Segregated storage capability for certified organic product, with dedicated zones and appropriate documentation to support your organic program.

HACCP Programs

Documented, actively managed HACCP food safety programs covering all critical control points throughout our receiving, storage, and handling operations.

Continuous Monitoring

24/7 automated temperature monitoring with alarm systems and documented logs, giving you confidence and audit-ready records for your compliance programs.

Full Traceability

Lot-level inventory traceability from receiving through outbound shipment, essential for recalls, audits, and customer transparency requirements.
