The global cold chain tracking and monitoring market size reached USD 7.0 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 16.7 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 9.57% during 2025-2033.
Cold chain tracking and monitoring represents a sophisticated, uninterrupted supply system that employs the Internet of Things (IoT) technology for supervising temperature-sensitive perishable products, including vaccines, chemicals, and pharmaceutical items. It aids in maintaining the quality of the item throughout the production, storage, and transportation processes by performing real-time tracking operations and acquiring essential data regarding the product. Apart from this, cold chain tracking and monitoring assists in extending the shelf life of fresh and frozen food products as they meet their constant requirement of refrigeration while offering a quality management system. At present, they are commercially categorized into varying systems and solutions.
One of the key factors driving the cold chain tracking and monitoring market growth is the increasing demand for the solution across the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. In line with this, they are widely used for trading perishable medical supplies, such as biological specimens, tissues, vaccines and oncology drugs, thus propelling the market growth. This is further supported by the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, which, in turn, has intensified the adoption of cold chain tracking and monitoring across the globe for maintaining the chemical stability and efficacy of the vaccines. Additionally, the rising industrial need for remotely operated automated logistic storage facilities to maintain the quality standards of various products is positively impacting the market growth. In line with this, the integration of radio-frequency identification (RFID) and the Internet of Things (IoT) sensors into the transportation pallets for tracking assets, managing inventory, and enhancing data accuracy are contributing to the market growth. Other factors, such as the escalating usage of e-commerce platforms to order consumer goods, rapid establishment of refrigerated warehouses, and the rising requirement amongst manufacturers to achieve an end-to-end visibility and condition monitoring throughout the supply chain operation, are creating a positive outlook for the market.
