The GCCA India Division successfully completed three Cold Storage Skill Up-gradation Program workshops in April and July. The first workshop was held at the NHB center in Gurgaon from 12-16 April 2010. This workshop was so successful that GCCA India received numerous requests from cold storage associations around India for further programming. In response to those requests, workshops were held in Andhra Pradesh in Hyderabad from 26-28 July 2010 and in Vijayawada from 29–31 July 2010. The course content included the handling of commodities specific to the regions where the workshops were held as well as field demonstrations of working multi-commodity storage in multi-chamber cold stores. Three quarters of the combined 113 attendees at both workshops were representatives of the cold storage industry. The remaining participants were outside consultants involved in cold storage projects related to the course content.
