Improving

Food Security

Vientiane Cold strives to eliminate world hunger and ensure that food security is a right for people around the world. The fight against world hunger requires significant investment in our infrastructure and innovation in food production and storage. Vientiane Cold  recognizes our responsibility to provide high quality food storage to reduce the risk of spoiled food for the final consumer. 

Environmental
Air Quality & Health

A study by the United Nations shows that around 7 million people die every year from exposure to fine particulates in polluted air. As a food storage and transport company, Vientiane Cold takes various steps to ensure that our transport vehicles and facilities are optimized to be as cost efficient and environmentally friendly as possible.

Affordable
& Clean Energy

At Vientiane Cold, our storage technology is based on high-stock density. We use considerably less physical and environmental footprint compared to more traditional storage companies. Our facilities are all designed and operated under optimized power consumption plans to reduce energy usage.

High Standard for Work & Economic Growth

Economic growth is based on increasing productivity and implementing technological innovations. Our cold storage warehouses are all outfitted with automated warehouse managing systems to reduce the need for physical labour. This, in turn, allows us to employ more highly trained professionals to sustain economic growth in our communities.

Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure

Innovation is crucial in every industry, including the cold food storage and transportation industry. With innovative solutions, we are resolving economic, operational, and environmental challenges. Vientiane is always looking to invest in innovative technologies that can help our business run more efficiently and sustainably.

Reduce
Inequalities

Inequality in the workplace and in our society contributes to a lack of economic growth and community development. Vientiane Cold aims to provide equal opportunity, networking, and philanthropic engagements for our local communities. We believe that investing into our employees and local communities is an important aspect to grow our businesses and our economy. 

Responsible Consumption & Production

Vientiane Cold is committed to eliminating and reducing waste products from our operations. We aim to eliminate all non-recyclable waste from our operational processes, and to implement recyclable materials where elimination is not possible.

Climate Action

Vientiane Cold recognizes that although cold storage and transportation is a vital part of our economy, our industry must take proactive steps to reduce the environmental impact of our operations. Vientiane Cold  only uses fuel-efficient and high-volume trucks that comply with emission standards. Our operations teams also ensures that we implement the most efficient routes to minimize time fuel consumption and air pollution.

Gender Equality

Vientiane Cold believes that gender equality is a human right and essential for improving the well-being of all women, men, girls, boys, and gender non-confirming people. We strive to create an environment that is free from oppression, discrimination, and constraints. Our leadership is always working towards inclusive sustainable development and equal opportunities for all people.

Clean Water
& Sanitation

Ensuring the availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation is an important part of Vientiane Cold’s operations. We understand that that the future of social development, economic prosperity, food security, health, agriculture, poverty reduction, energy generation and healthy ecosystems is all tied to the availability of clean water.
