Cherry Hill Coolstores has been in operation since 1990. The business, originally a small coolstore set on 170 acres of farmland located in Latrobe, was purchased in 1990 by father and son, Kevin (since retired) and Andrew Langmaid. Latrobe is situated on the north west coast of Tasmania, approximately ten minutes away from the port, and city of Devonport.

The business has been steadily increasing innovative activities and turn over. The operation has been redesigned and rebuilt and now comprises of 16 coolstores and three large dry store areas. Cherry Hill Coolstores now has the capacity to handle 15,000 tonnes of seed potatoes per annum.

Cherry Hill Coolstores has nine full time employees who fulfill administrative and supervisory roles, with up to 20 seasonal employees involved at various times of the year.

HAPPY CLIENTS

We have a great working relationship with Cherry Hill. The project we run out of their facility is essential to the success of our harvest season around Australia. The scope of our project is ever changing and with the flexibility of Cherry Hill it has made everything run a lot smoother. The assistance that Kel and the team provide us has always been fantastic.

Benefits of improved services. Over the years Cherry Hill continue to have better unloading facilities  and better coolstores. With the new faster unloader, our turnaround time to unload 50-tonnes of seed is about 2-3 hours less per day. That saves  me time and money, and I’m not keeping people waiting in paddocks for  empty trucks to return.

Darryl Saltmarsh – Partner R & D Saltmarsh /

A better product for us. We’ve been dealing with Cherry Hill Coolstores for 20 years or more and are really impressed  with their communication skills, they’re excellent. As a farmer and contractor, we often need  to talk to them two or three times a day and their correspondence is always great, they really  listen to our concerns. This is very important to our business. Over recent years Cherry Hill has been monitoring their coolstores and have improved the CO₂ levels which have resulted in a better product for us as end users. We are seeing a massive emergence of potato that is a lot more consistent.
