United Cold Storage (UCS) is a public refigerated warehouse with more than half a million cubic feet of frozen and refrigerated space. UCS serves the San Francisco and Peninsula areas from its location in South San Francisco.
The UCS facility was built in 1938 as a meat packing plant and continued as such into the 1950's. The facility evolved into a public refrigerated warehouse with the decline of the meat packing industry in the area and has served a variety of frozen food purveyors including being Safeway's first frozen distribution warehouse.
In the mid 1990's James Morgan assumed operation of the facility. With over 40 years of warehousing experience Mr. Morgan continues as the owner/operator of the certified organic faciltiy today. UCS is an AIB Superior rated facility which is approved by the FDA & USDA for imports & exports.
UCS now serves the local market providing customers with fast, friendly & efficient service for a range of products including locally caught & imported seafood, fine pastries, meat & poultry and various commodities for the growing boutique food manufacturing industry.
