In 1971, P&O entered into a joint management arrangement when they purchased Brisbane Cool Store at Eagle Farm. This was the first "high rise" cold store in Australia, storing warehoused general cold storage products including frozen export cartoned meat; poultry; frozen orange juice concentrate; and chilled peanuts. In 1978, P&O bought out its partner and operated the "high rise" store as a General Public Cold Store up to 1989 when the complex was sold to Hans Smallgoods.
