Consider potential delays due to North America winter storms (December-March) by building in buffer days and flexible delivery windows. Expect tight capacity and higher rates during the North American summer holiday peak (late June-early September) and back-to-school demand (late July-September); secure bookings early. Coordinate closely with carriers for real-time weather and congestion reports during Brazil's wet season (October-March) to mitigate risks from flooding and delays. Additionally, plan for increased competition during South America’s fruit (January-May, September-December) and soy export peaks (February-June) by securing vessel space well in advance.

Moving fresh produce successfully demands a continuous cold chain. Use Insulated packaging with the right amount of gel packs for Chilled food or dry ice for frozen goods, pre‑chill products before packing, and choose a Fast transit service. Clearly mark boxes as “Perishable” and specify the required temperature so carriers handle them as Reefer cargo.
Yes, Frozen food can often be shipped with dry ice by air, but dry ice is regulated as a dangerous good. Airlines have 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 Frozen food 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 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 verify 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 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 goods must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, We recommend separating them into different temperature-controlled shipments to avoid freezing Fresh produce or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh and frozen food must be transported under strict temperature controls to maintain product quality. It is essential to use appropriate insulated packaging and temperature monitoring devices to ensure compliance with refrigeration requirements during the air freight process.
Shipping fresh and frozen food requires compliance with both U.S. and Brazilian regulations, including obtaining necessary health certifications and import permits. Products must also meet Brazilian phytosanitary standards to prevent the introduction of pests and diseases.
