Food is an essential part of human life. Food is being consumed to allow humans to generate energy and stay healthy. The low intake on a specific type of food can lead to a risk of getting cancer. For example, a low intake of vegetable and fruit can cause human to be exposed to particular lung cancer (Block et al., 1992). Due to this issue, human started to realise the importance of consuming healthy food. Older generations have already understood the link between nutrition and health that gain through food. Their interest in 'healthy living' food consuming has to increase affluence and education among the world population (Kern, 2006). As the years go by, the food consumption trend is changing. Human is focusing more on fresh food consumption, especially for fruits and vegetables.

The cold storage is created in supermarkets and mini-market in order to ensure people live in urbanise area able to consume fresh and good quality of products such as vegetables and fruits.
