The ocean route from Foshan to Callao is ideal for transporting fresh produce and frozen food due to its capacity to maintain temperature-controlled environments. This journey allows for the efficient movement of chilled and refrigerated goods, ensuring they arrive in optimal condition. Utilizing this route minimizes the risk of spoilage, making it a reliable choice for suppliers and retailers alike. Additionally, the extensive shipping networks provide flexibility in scheduling, accommodating varying shipment sizes.
Foshan boasts advanced logistics infrastructure, including state-of-the-art cold storage facilities and efficient transportation links that facilitate the seamless handling of fresh and frozen food. The port of Callao, equipped with modern unloading and warehousing capabilities, is well-suited for receiving temperature-sensitive cargo. Both locations are strategically positioned to support quick distribution to local markets, enhancing the supply chain efficiency for fresh produce and frozen goods. This robust infrastructure ensures that products maintain their quality throughout the shipping process.
Comparative analysis of origin and destination capabilities.
Shippers typically route ocean cargo through nearby deep sea ports such as Guangzhou Nansha, so shipping instructions must specify the actual loading port rather than Foshan itself
Imports are subject to Peruvian customs rules, including advance cargo information and correct valuation.

Book vessel space and inland transport capacity well in advance of critical periods, especially during the Lunar New Year (mid-January to late-February) and the Christmas retail peak (October-December), as delays are common. Expect extended handling times and longer transit times during the South America fruit export peak (January-May, September-December) and the soy harvest export peak (February-June). Plan in buffer days to accommodate potential disruptions from typhoon season (June-November) and ensure alternative routing options are available to mitigate delays.

Moving perishable goods successfully demands 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 Reefer cargo.
Yes, frozen goods can in many cases 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. 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 chilled food and Frozen goods. 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 goods 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 goods in the same load, but only if your container or vehicle can maintain separate temperature zones. Fresh produce 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 perishable goods or partially thawing frozen items.
It is crucial to maintain the cold chain throughout the journey to ensure the integrity of fresh and frozen food. This includes using refrigerated containers that can sustain specific temperature ranges required for chilled and frozen items. Proper loading and unloading procedures should also be followed to minimize temperature fluctuations.
Shipments of fresh and frozen food must comply with both Chinese export regulations and Peruvian import regulations. This includes obtaining necessary health certifications, ensuring products meet sanitary standards, and providing accurate documentation for customs clearance in both countries.
