Sodus Cold Storage Co., Inc. Information

Sodus Cold Storage, Co., Inc. was established in 1914 by a group of local farmers and businessmen whose main goal was to provide the area growers with a warehouse to store their produce for orderly marketing. It was also built to provide an icing station so that produce could be loaded in rail cars for shipment to New York City and other major eastern markets. 1930 brought Sodus Cold Storage into the "Frozen Food Age" with its first freezer room. In 1963, Sodus Cold Storage acquired its second facility in nearby North Rose, New York. This gave Sodus Cold Storage a controlled atmosphere capability, which it had not previously had. As the years passed, and market demand continued to grow for freezers, the most up to date insulators and refrigeration equipment was installed. This evolutionary updating of equipment was and continues to be, a major commitment to present management.
