The national supply chain begins at a centralized facility, then moves to regional storage, eventually reaching the distribution centre.

The supply chain is eating into your margin.

Here’s what a typical packaged ice supply chain looks like — with long-haul trucks and forklifts repeatedly moving in and out to deliver the product to you. Each handoff adds cost, complexity, and risk.

Hyperlocal production eliminates upstream logistics and supply chain steps by enabling production at the distribution center.

We change that with a one-step journey for packaged ice.

Relocalize transforms packaged ice supply by enabling hyperlocal production at your distribution center, streamlining your supply chain and reducing costs.
