Don's Cold Storage Story

Don’s Cold Storage was founded by Don Coenen in Northwest Arkansas with a clear focus on reliability and long-term partnerships. From the beginning, the company was built to support food producers and distributors who needed more than just warehouse space. The goal was simple: protect product integrity, maintain consistency, and operate with accountability at every level.

The company started as a regional cold storage operation serving local and regional customers. As demand increased, Don’s grew carefully, adding capacity and locations only when operations and staffing could support it. This disciplined approach allowed the company to scale without sacrificing quality or control, earning trust through steady performance rather than rapid expansion.

Headquartered in Rogers, Arkansas, Don’s Cold Storage now operates multiple facilities across the region. The company supports a wide range of businesses, from small producers to large distribution networks. While the footprint has expanded, leadership remains closely connected to day-to-day operations, ensuring decisions stay grounded in real-world logistics experience.

Today, Don’s Cold Storage continues to grow alongside its customers. The company remains focused on doing the work the right way, investing in people, infrastructure, and systems that support dependable storage and logistics. That commitment to consistency and trust is what has defined Don’s from the start and continues to guide where it is headed next.
