When shipping from Haiphong, Vietnam to Buenos Aires, Argentina, anticipate significant delays due to the Southeast Asia Monsoon Season (May-November) and the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November). Add buffer days to schedules and avoid tight transshipment connections during peak periods. Secure vessel space and equipment at least 3-4 weeks in advance during the South America fruit export peak (January-May, September-December) to mitigate congestion risks. Monitor weather forecasts and adjust routes as necessary to accommodate potential disruptions from cyclones (November-April) and Southern Ocean storms (May-September).

Shipping perishable goods successfully Requires 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 temperature-controlled freight.
Yes, Frozen food can in many cases 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. 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 Exclude coverage for temperature-related loss on chilled food and Frozen goods. 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 Chilled 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 Confirm 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 produce 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 Fresh produce or partially thawing frozen items.
It is essential to maintain proper temperature controls throughout the shipping process to ensure the integrity of fresh and frozen food. This includes using refrigerated containers for chilled items and ensuring that frozen goods remain below -18°C. Adequate insulation and monitoring systems should be in place to prevent temperature fluctuations during transit.
Shipping fresh and frozen food between Vietnam and Argentina requires compliance with both countries' food safety regulations. This includes obtaining necessary export permits from Vietnamese authorities and import permits from Argentine authorities. Additionally, products must meet specific health and phytosanitary standards, including proper documentation that certifies the condition and origin of the goods.
