Alaska Cargo & Cold Storage (ACCS) has been formed to develop in phases a secure, 700,000 sq. ft. climate controlled warehouse facility within the Ted Stevens
Anchorage International Airport (ANC).
The facility will serve as the cold storage gateway between the Americas, Asia, and Europe, and further integrate Alaska into the global cold chain.
ACCS will have an approximate footprint of 700,000 sq. ft., and will be up to 75 ft. tall, per airport regulations. It will offer cold and warm storage, quick cargo, and general warehousing options, logistics services, and includes auxiliary space for tenant offices.
With 700,000 square feet and 32.5 million cubic feet of capacity, the facility will provide ANC with a critical piece of infrastructure at the world’s sixth busiest
cargo airport.
Located on the Great Circle Route, ANC is within 9.5 hours of 90% of key markets in Asia, Europe and North America.
ACCS will occupy ANC’s last undeveloped site, located immediately adjacent to hard stands, ANC terminals, and FedEx/UPS facilities, with access to Postmark Drive and Alaska ground transportation arteries.
Situated near the main cargo ramp, aircraft parking positions, and adjacent cargo facilities that presently lack cold storage, it is strategically positioned to allow current airport customers to quickly store and retrieve cargo from within the airport’s secure area, which is also located in a Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ). In order to meet demand from the local market, ACCS will also be accessible from outside the secure area.
As the world’s fifth busiest cargo airport, ANC provides a strategic location for central customer service and repair hubs; final product assembly, packaging, testing, and
distribution operations; and, international warehousing and distribution of high value, time sensitive products.
ANC possesses unique cargo transfer rights that allow cost and operational efficiencies unavailable elsewhere. Collectively, ACCS + ANC’s unique rights and benefits provide air cargo carriers the perfect opportunity to perform hub and spoke operations at this U.S. gateway.
