NewCold wins Sustainability Award at the 15th DBT Investment Awards

Last week, we were proud to join partners from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands at the 15th Annual Department for Business and Trade (DBT) Investment Awards Dinner in Amsterdam, a celebration of the partnership and shared ambition that continues to strengthen both nations.

We extend our thanks to British Ambassador to the Netherlands, Chris Rampling, for his inspiring opening remarks on the UK Government’s Growth Agenda, and to Simon Banham, Country Director DBT NL, and his team—not only for hosting the evening with great energy and warmth, but for being instrumental partners who have supported our UK journey from the very start.

We are especially honored that NewCold received the Sustainability Award. This recognition reflects our commitment to building a more energy-efficient, low-carbon future for the global cold chain.

“The UK is a vital strategic market for NewCold, and we are proud to continue expanding our operations throughout the country. But for us, growth goes hand-in-hand with responsibility. Sustainability isn’t a separate initiative; it is the foundation of how we transform the global cold chain. Every innovation we deploy, from automation to energy-efficient infrastructure, is built to reduce environmental impact while strengthening resilience for our customers. This award is a testament to our belief that a smarter, greener future is not only possible, but essential,” says Porendy Ung, Managing Director for Global Retail and New Markets.

We congratulate our fellow award winners and celebrate the incredible ventures driving progress, partnership, and shared success.

The 2025 winners included:
• New Entrant – LT Foods
• Expansion – Naq
• Innovation – Mediq
• Sustainability – NewCold

NewCold does not view sustainability and commercial imperatives as binary choices. Sustainability fuels the innovation that helps us better serve our customers, people, and planet. We look forward to continuing to strengthen Dutch investment in the UK and to celebrating the 16th edition of this remarkable event in 2026.
