Account for the Atlantic Hurricane Season (June-November) by building in buffer days and flexible port windows to absorb potential disruptions. Expect increased handling times during the South America fruit export peak (January-May, September-December) and secure vessel space well in advance. Additionally, prepare for the impacts of Saharan dust (June-August) on visibility and operational delays. Stay updated on carriers for weather-related changes and adjust schedules accordingly to maintain delivery commitments throughout these critical periods.

Transporting Fresh food successfully demands a continuous cold chain. Use thermal containers with the right amount of gel packs for refrigerated 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 Usually 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 reefer cargo at temperature while staying within dry‑ice limits.
Standard cargo policies may restrict coverage for temperature-related loss on Perishable goods and Frozen goods. Insurance specialists generally recommend arranging a policy that specifically covers temperature deviation and spoilage, and declaring the full value of your refrigerated food shipment. Keep packing records and temperature logs; insurers often require proof that correct handling was used before honoring claims.
Most chilled beverages 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 temperature-controlled shipment is set correctly.
You can sometimes mix chilled food 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, best practice is separating them into different temperature-controlled shipments to avoid freezing perishable goods or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh and frozen food must be kept at specific temperature ranges during transit to maintain quality. This includes using refrigerated containers for chilled products and ensuring frozen items are kept at or below -18°C. Proper insulation and temperature monitoring are essential throughout the 6692 km air route to prevent spoilage.
Shipments of fresh and frozen food must comply with Brazil's health and safety regulations, which include obtaining necessary import permits and adhering to the requirements set by the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture. Importers must also provide documentation such as health certificates and invoices to facilitate customs clearance in Vitoria.
