SeaCube Cold Solutions expands West Coast Footprint with Martin Container deal

SeaCube Cold Solutions has acquired Martin Container. The deal strengthens SeaCube’s position as the first dedicated national provider of portable cold storage in the US.

The acquisition combines SeaCube’s national platform with Martin Container’s strong West Coast presence. Martin has served customers across California, Arizona, and Nevada for nearly 50 years.

SeaCube Cold Solutions launched in 2025 and focuses solely on portable cold storage. Backed by SeaCube Container Leasing, the company continues to expand its nationwide network.

“This acquisition increases both scale and regional strength,” said James Armstrong, Senior Vice President of SeaCube Cold Solutions. “It allows us to deliver faster and more flexible cold storage where customers need it.”

Martin Container’s locations near the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach will integrate into SeaCube’s depot and transport network. Customers will benefit from faster delivery, greater capacity, energy-efficient refrigeration, and digital monitoring.

Operations will continue without disruption. The Martin Container team will remain in place, supported by SeaCube’s national resources.

“This partnership builds on our legacy,” said Charlie Martin, CFO of Martin Container. “We share the same focus on quality, innovation, and customer service.”

Sapling Financial Consultants advised SeaCube on the transaction.
