Anticipate increased congestion and longer transit times during Brazil's wet season (October-March) and the South America fruit export peak (January-May, September-December). Secure vessel space and trucking capacity well in advance, as tight availability is common during these periods. Stay updated on weather forecasts and adjust schedules for potential delays due to cyclones (November-April) and winter storms (December-March). Build in extra buffer days in your logistics plans to mitigate risks associated with terminal congestion and unpredictable weather conditions.

Shipping Fresh food successfully Requires a continuous cold chain. Use cooler boxes 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 Set 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. Most experts 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 Exclude coverage for temperature-related loss on Perishable goods and Frozen goods. Most shippers should 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 Chilled 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 Confirm 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 produce and Frozen food 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 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 & Frozen Food must be kept at specific temperature ranges throughout the air freight process to ensure quality and safety. This includes using temperature-controlled containers and monitoring systems during transit. Proper packaging is essential to prevent spoilage and contamination.
Shipments of Fresh & Frozen Food between Brazil and Mexico require compliance with both countries' health and safety regulations, including obtaining necessary permits and certificates.
