ABOUT NAB-CCM


The National Accreditation Body for Cold Chain Management (NAB-CCM) is the first-of-its-kind ecosystem dedicated to advancing cold chain management. It is a collaborative initiative driven by partnerships between academia, industry and government, focused on providing education, training, awareness, certification, incubation and accreditation within the cold chain community.

WHAT IS COLD CHAIN MANAGEMENT?

Cold Chain Management refers to the process of maintaining a temperature-controlled supply chain to preserve and ensure the quality, efficacy, and safety of products that are sensitive to temperature variations. The cold chain encompasses the entire journey of temperature-sensitive products, from production through transportation and storage to end-user delivery. This includes not just the physical infrastructure but also the practices and protocols required to monitor and control the temperature conditions throughout the chain
