During the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November), build in extra buffer days for potential delays and confirm alternative routing options. In Brazil's Wet Season (October-March), account for heavy rainfall and localized flooding, necessitating additional transit time. Additionally, coordinate closely with carriers during critical periods like the South America Soy Export Peak (February-June) to mitigate congestion risks. Stay vigilant about weather forecasts and adjust schedules as needed to ensure timely deliveries.

Moving Fresh food successfully necessitates a continuous cold chain. Use thermal containers with the right amount of gel packs for Chilled food or dry ice for frozen goods, 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 food can Usually 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. Our compliance team recommends checking carrier and destination rules in advance and combining dry ice with insulated packaging to keep Frozen food at temperature while staying within dry‑ice limits.
Standard cargo policies may limit coverage for temperature-related loss on Perishable goods and frozen food. Insurance specialists generally recommend arranging a policy that specifically covers temperature deviation and spoilage, and declaring the full value of your Reefer cargo. Keep packing records and temperature logs; insurers often require proof that correct handling was used before honoring claims.
Most refrigerated food should stay between 0–4°C, while many Frozen food 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 temperature-controlled shipment is set correctly.
You can sometimes mix fresh food and Frozen food 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 food must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, We recommend separating them into different temperature-controlled shipments to avoid freezing perishable goods or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh and frozen food shipments require temperature-controlled containers to maintain the integrity of the products. It's essential to monitor temperature settings throughout the journey, as the route involves long ocean transit that could affect product quality if not properly managed.
Shipments of fresh and frozen food must comply with both South Korean export regulations and Brazilian import regulations, which include proper documentation such as health certificates, import permits, and compliance with sanitary and phytosanitary standards to ensure food safety.
