[6][7] Lineage operates over 450 facilities across 18 countries, with approximately 26,000 team members globally in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific.

[10] The company then acquired CityIce, in 2009, and Flint River Services, in 2010, followed, in 2011, by Terminal Freezers of Santa Maria, California, and Richmond Cold Storage, purchased from Atlanta Equity.

[10] In a March 2021 interview with Bloomberg, Lineage CEO Greg Lehmkuhl said the company is actively preparing its initial public offering (IPO).

[15] In November 2023, Lineage expanded and established Harnes (Pas-de-Calais) as its European logistics hub by opening a new 17,000 m2 (180,000 sq ft) state-of-the-art modern cold storage facility.

[16] As of March 2024, Lineage has been granted over 75 patents registered across multiple jurisdictions, related to technological developments within the temperature-controlled logistics sector.

[22] By 2014, most Lineage customers were food producers requiring cold chain warehousing, transportation, and logistics; to meet demand, the company concentrated on automation and acquisition.

[4] In January 2015, Lineage acquired the Pacific Northwest cold storage facilities of Columbia Colstor, headquartered in Moses Lake, Washington.

[6] On February 25, 2019 The Wall Street Journal reported the company's acquisition of Preferred Freezer Services LLC., its largest competitor, in a deal reportedly worth over $1 billion, expanding Lineage to the world's largest facility network, with 1.3 billion cubic feet of storage in over 200 facilities across the United States, Europe, and Asia.

[38] The same month, Lineage entered the Spanish marketplace, acquiring cold storage firm Frigorificos de Navarra of Gijón, Spain from Frioastur and, in June 2021, entered the European freight industry with its acquisition of Rotterdam-based UTI Forwarding,[39] and also acquired Kloosterboer Group in Europe, and the cold storage division of Claus Sorensen Group in Denmark.

[43] In March, Lineage further expanded its network by acquiring MTC Logistics, adding nearly 38 million cubic feet of capacity and more than 113,000 pallet positions in the United States and its presence at key ports along the U.S. East and Gulf Coasts.

[52] In 2023, Lineage and the Foundation sponsored DC Central Kitchen's Capital Food Fight and partnered with Forgotten Harvest to supply nearly 12,000 metro Detroit households with holiday meal boxes.

It operates about 223 facilities in North America, including in 37 U.S. states, and warehouses in Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, Poland, Singapore, Spain, Sri Lanka, the United Kingdom, and Vietnam.
