Grimsby Ice Factory was an ice-manufacturing business in Grimsby, England, built between 1898 and 1901 to supply crushed ice for preserving fish stored aboard ships at Grimsby seaport. At its peak the factory produced 1,200 tonnes of ice a day and was the largest ice factory in the world. It remained in operation until 1990, after which the building was left vacant and has since fallen into disrepair.
