Ransomware Strikes Peter Green Chilled, Threatening Supply Chain

January 23, 2026

INCIDENT

Peter Green Chilled, a UK food logistics and cold‑chain distributor, was hit by a ransomware cyberattack. The incident disrupted the company’s ability to process new orders and forced it to warn customers of the breach. The company acknowledged that order processing had been paused, though it maintained that transport operations continued during the disruption. The attack had immediate supply‑chain consequences: suppliers reported stock sitting idle in warehouses and at ports, risking spoilage and financial loss if products could not be delivered to retailers in time.

No ransomware group has publicly claimed responsibility.
