Lineage Logistics is based in Novi, Michigan. The company is trying to transform food supply chains to tackle food shortages and maximize efficiency. It aims to do that by operating a global network of temperature-controlled storage units for mainly foods with short shelf-life like fruits, vegetables and dairy. 

The company uses “blast-freeze” methods to freeze air at extremely low temperatures in its storage units, with each having five million pounds of food a day. Lineage runs 400 storage units across the world in regions like North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America. 

Lineage’s valuation and funding has allowed it to acquire 70 companies to expand its food storage capabilities. It is one of the most innovative companies in 2022.
