Our Story
It Started With Ice Cream
Jose Santiago De Santiago Olguin was born in 1926 and ran an ice cream shop. In that business a dead compressor means a lost season, so he learned to install and repair his own refrigeration. His son Alfredo grew up around that machinery. He turned the skill into his own refrigeration business in Zacatecas, Mexico.
Alfredo's son Frederick brought the trade to Texas and founded ColdSolutions in Corpus Christi in 2013. Today father and son run the company together, with fifty years of combined home and commercial experience.
The name on the papers says the rest: De Santiago & Sons, Inc.
