Experienced logistics services for Frozen Goods cargo
Taiwan
China
The ocean route from Kaohsiung to Shenzhen is ideal for transporting fresh produce and chilled food, ensuring optimal conditions for maintaining product quality. This maritime pathway allows for the efficient movement of refrigerated and frozen food items, minimizing exposure to temperature fluctuations during transit. Additionally, the route's capacity enables large shipments, making it cost-effective for suppliers looking to meet high demand in the Shenzhen market.
Kaohsiung boasts a well-equipped port with advanced cold chain facilities, ensuring that fresh and frozen products are handled with care from departure.

When shipping from Kaohsiung to Shenzhen, anticipate the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November) by building in buffer days and flexible port windows to accommodate sudden disruptions. During the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October), consider delays in cargo handling due to heavy rainfall; utilize waterproof coverings for shipments. Additionally, secure vessel space well in advance of the Lunar New Year (mid-January to late-February) and Golden Week (October 1-7) to avoid congestion and delays.

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 expedited service. Clearly mark boxes as “Perishable” and specify the required temperature so carriers handle them as Reefer cargo.
Yes, frozen goods 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 Fresh produce or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh and frozen food must be transported in temperature-controlled containers to maintain the required cold chain. Special attention should be given to loading and unloading processes to minimize exposure to ambient temperatures.
Required documentation includes a health certificate, customs declaration, and any necessary import permits specific to food products. Compliance with both Taiwan and China's food safety regulations is essential for smooth customs clearance.
