COLD and LINE are the two largest cold storage REITs, with COLD offering a more traditional, conservative business model and LINE focusing on tech-driven, aggressive growth. Despite both facing industry challenges, COLD's established portfolio, conservative expansion, and higher dividend yield make it more appealing compared to LINE's premium valuation and riskier strategy.
