When shipping from Newark to Suape, be mindful of the Atlantic Hurricane Season (June-November) by building in buffer days and flexible port windows to accommodate potential delays. During the Brazil Wet Season (October-March), consider increased rainfall and flooding, which may necessitate additional transit time. Additionally, anticipate congestion during the South America fruit export peak (January-May, September-December) and soy export peak (February-June), requiring early booking and flexible routing. Always monitor weather forecasts closely to adjust plans as needed.

Shipping fresh produce 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 Fast transit service. Clearly mark boxes as “Perishable” and specify the required temperature so carriers handle them as Reefer cargo.
Yes, Frozen food can often 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 Exclude coverage for temperature-related loss on fresh 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 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 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 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, 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 temperature throughout the journey. Ensuring proper insulation and refrigeration is crucial to prevent spoilage and maintain quality during the 6771 km ocean freight route.
Shipments of fresh and frozen food require compliance with both U.S. and Brazilian regulations, including obtaining necessary health certificates, import permits, and adhering to specific packaging and labeling requirements set by Brazilian authorities to ensure food safety and quality.
