Alyx and Koolboks

In this pilot, French innovator Koolboks and Nigerian logistics company Alyx will pilot solar-powered storage trailers with local farmers requiring cold chain transport for their fruit and vegetable produce. The pilot aims to reduce Alyx’s last mile distribution costs and prevent food waste and losses for farmers, which can reach 40-60 percent using conventional, unrefrigerated transport methods.
