Consider the Brazilian wet season (October-March), as heavy rainfall can cause port delays and flooding; allow for extra buffer days in your schedules. Secure vessel space early, especially before the Christmas retail peak (October-December) and Lunar New Year (mid-January to late-February), to avoid congestion and capacity issues. Monitor weather conditions during the South Atlantic cyclone risk period (November-April) to anticipate potential disruptions. Expect extended transit times due to holiday staffing reductions (December 20-January 5) and increased demand during peak seasons.

Moving fresh produce successfully Requires a continuous cold chain. Use Insulated packaging with the right amount of gel packs for refrigerated food or dry ice for Frozen food, 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 often 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 reefer cargo at temperature while staying within dry‑ice limits.
Standard cargo policies may limit coverage for temperature-related loss on fresh food and Frozen goods. We 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 Proper packaging 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 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 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 goods must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, best practice is separating them into different Reefer cargo shipments to avoid freezing perishable goods or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh & Frozen Food requires temperature-controlled environments throughout the shipping process. It is essential to use appropriate packaging that maintains the required temperature during air freight, ensuring compliance with cold chain logistics.
Shipping Fresh & Frozen Food requires compliance with both Brazilian export regulations and Taiwanese import regulations, including obtaining necessary permits and health certificates.
