In 2012, GCCF was asked to prepare technical documents for potential investors. To complete these documents, GCCA experts conducted site inventories in four locations, assessing competition from existing facilities; local interest from potential joint venture partners; availability of refrigerated transport; proximity to sources of supply and demand for fruit, vegetables, and chilled meat products; access to infrastructure; and the ease and cost-effectiveness of upgrading existing infrastructure or alternatively developing back-up systems to ease the impact of power outages and water shortages. In addition, GCCF collected and analyzed data for the catchment area of each site, prepared technical specification with draft design and engineering plans for each potential site, and provided cost estimates for construction.
