When shipping from Nanjing, China to Navegantes, Brazil, anticipate significant delays due to seasonal factors. Build in extra buffer days during the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October) and Brazil Wet Season (October-March) to account for delays in cargo handling. Secure vessel space well in advance of the Golden Week holiday (October 1-7) and Lunar New Year (mid-January to late-February) to avoid booking shortages. Additionally, coordinate with carriers for updated schedules during peak export periods (September-December) to mitigate delays.

Shipping perishable goods 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 expedited 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 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 Exclude coverage for temperature-related loss on chilled food and frozen food. 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 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 temperature-controlled shipment 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. Chilled food typically needs temperatures above freezing, while frozen food must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, most logistics providers recommend 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 controls throughout the entire air freight process to prevent spoilage. Proper packaging and insulation are essential to maintain the required temperatures during transit.
Shipments of fresh and frozen food require compliance with both Chinese export regulations and Brazilian import regulations, including health certifications, inspection documents, and adherence to food safety standards established by Brazilian authorities.
