When shipping from Anagni, Italy to Callao, Peru, expect significant disruptions during peak seasonal periods. Build in additional buffer days for transit and port calls during Mediterranean winter storms (November-March) and North Atlantic winter storms (November-March) to accommodate weather-related delays. Arrange vessel space early during the South America fruit export peak (January-May, September-December) and soy export peak (February-June) to avoid rollovers. Additionally, track customs processing times closely during the Western New Year holiday period (December 20-January 5) to prevent delays in clearance.

Moving fresh produce successfully necessitates a continuous cold chain. Use Insulated packaging with the right amount of gel packs for refrigerated food or dry ice for Frozen food, pre‑chill products before packing, and choose a time‑definite service. Clearly mark boxes as “Perishable” and specify the required temperature so carriers handle them as temperature-controlled freight.
Yes, frozen goods can often be shipped with dry ice by air, but dry ice is regulated as a dangerous good. Airlines impose limits on how much dry ice is allowed per package and per shipment, and labels must show the net weight of dry ice and UN1845 markings. We recommend checking carrier and destination rules in advance and combining dry ice with insulated packaging to keep reefer cargo at temperature while staying within dry‑ice limits.
Standard cargo policies may limit coverage for temperature-related loss on fresh food and frozen food. We recommend arranging a policy that specifically covers temperature deviation and spoilage, and declaring the full value of your refrigerated food shipment. Keep packing records and temperature logs; insurers often require proof that Proper packaging was used before honoring claims.
Most refrigerated food should stay between 0–4°C, while many frozen goods products must remain at −18°C or colder. Exact ranges depend on the product type and local regulations. Always check requirements for each item and specify the target range on booking instructions and labels so your Reefer cargo is set correctly.
You can sometimes mix fresh food and frozen goods in the same load, but only if your container or vehicle can maintain separate temperature zones. Chilled food typically needs temperatures above freezing, while Frozen goods must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, best practice is separating them into different Reefer cargo shipments to avoid freezing perishable goods or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh and frozen food must be maintained at specific temperature ranges throughout the entire shipping process. Proper insulation and refrigeration systems must be utilized to prevent spoilage. Additionally, it is crucial to minimize the time spent in transit to maintain product quality.
Shipments of fresh and frozen food require compliance with both Italian and Peruvian regulations, including obtaining necessary health certifications, ensuring the products meet sanitary standards, and completing customs documentation that may include invoices, packing lists, and certificates of origin.
