Summary: in recent years, we have introduced a number of policies to support the development of cold banks, which have contributed to the steady increase in the size of our cold bank, but the capacity of the most powerful enterprises has been declining. In 2021, the share of the top 100 enterprises in the national total was approximately 38. 99 per cent, a decrease of 4. 47 percentage points over the same period, a decrease in the concentration of the industry and a more fragmented market pattern. In terms of the regional distribution of cold-banked companies, the country's cold-banked companies are characterized by the distribution of “small and small” companies; in terms of the distribution of the storage capacity of cold-banked companies, the country's cold-storage capacity is mainly medium-sized, and the super-large cold-storey is small。

I. Competition patterns: the market concentration of the cold-storage sector is low and the cold-storage capacity in east china is well advanced
Refrigerated tanks are one type of equipment that is used manually to create an environment different from the outdoor temperature or humidity and which is also a storage facility for food, liquids, chemicals, medicines, vaccines, scientific experiments, etc. Refrigerators are usually located in or near the port of transport or the place of origin, and are larger and have common refrigeration principles. In general, cold storage is mostly cooled, using liquids with low gaseous temperatures (ammonium or freon) as a coolant, which evaporates under low pressure and mechanically controlled conditions, absorbs the heat in storage and thereby cools cooling down。
According to data from the central cold alliance, in 2021 the national treasury stood at 5. 224 million tons, an increase of 2. 98 million tons over the previous year, or 6. 05 per cent over the previous year, and the stock of the 100 powerful enterprises at 2. 037 million tons, a decrease of 1. 04 million tons over the previous year, or 4. 86 per cent over the previous year. In 2021, the new coronary epidemic affected residents with limited movement, significantly reduced sub-line consumption, increased market demand for online shopping, instant distribution, trans-regional transport, etc., and a strain on the nation's cold bank. In recent years, we have introduced a number of policies to support the development of cold banks, which have contributed to the steady increase in the size of our cold banks, but the capacity of the 100 powerful firms has shown a downward trend. In 2021, the share of the top 100 enterprises in the national total was approximately 38. 99 per cent, a decrease of 4. 47 percentage points over the same period, a decrease in the concentration of the industry and a more fragmented market pattern。

According to the regional distribution of cold-banking enterprises, in 2021 the eastern part of china, with 9. 168,000 tons of storage capacity, accounting for about 45 per cent of the top 100 enterprises, followed by 4. 068 million tons, or 20 per cent, in addition to the northern part of china, 8. 5 per cent of the south-west, 7. 9 per cent of the south-west, 5. 6 per cent of the north-east and 4. 4 per cent of the north-west, show the overall distribution of cold-banking firms。
In terms of the distribution of storage capacity among the top companies in the cold bank, in 2021 the top companies in the cold bank had over 100,000 tons of storage capacity. Of these, enterprises with a storage capacity of less than 200,000 tons account for 62 per cent, those with a storage capacity of between 200,000 and 300,000 tons account for 22 per cent, and those with a storage capacity of more than 300,000 tons account for 16 per cent. Overall, the country's cold storage capacity is mainly medium-sized, with oversized cold storage being small。
