The air route from Shenzhen to Recife is ideal for transporting fresh produce and frozen food due to its speed and efficiency. This direct connection minimizes the time perishable goods spend in transit, ensuring that chilled and refrigerated food arrives in optimal condition. Additionally, the use of air freight allows for a broader distribution range, catering to the growing demand for high-quality fresh and frozen products in the Brazilian market. The reliability of air transport also enhances supply chain predictability, crucial for maintaining freshness.
Shenzhen boasts a modern airport equipped with state-of-the-art cold chain facilities, ensuring that fresh and frozen items are handled with the utmost care. The city’s logistics infrastructure includes advanced warehousing solutions that support temperature-controlled storage, which is vital for preserving product quality. Upon arrival in Recife, the airport is similarly outfitted with specialized cold storage facilities, allowing for seamless transfer and distribution of perishable goods. This robust infrastructure in both cities supports efficient handling and transportation of temperature-sensitive products.

When shipping from Shenzhen, China to Recife, Brazil, consider seasonal disruptions such as the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October) and Brazil's Wet Season (October-March). Add extra buffer days for potential delays due to heavy rainfall and port congestion, particularly during peak rainfall months (June-September and November-February). Confirm vessel space and trucking capacity well in advance, especially around critical retail periods like Black Friday (mid-November to early December) and the Christmas retail peak (October-December), to mitigate risks of rollovers and extended dwell times.

Transporting 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 goods 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 restrict 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 adequate insulation was used before honoring claims.
Most chilled beverages 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 chilled food 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, best practice is separating them into different temperature-controlled shipments to avoid freezing Fresh produce or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh and frozen food requires strict temperature control during air freight to ensure product integrity. It is essential to use insulated packaging and dry ice or gel packs to maintain appropriate temperatures throughout the journey. Special handling procedures must be in place to minimize the risk of thawing or spoilage.
Shipping fresh and frozen food from Shenzhen to Recife requires compliance with both Chinese export regulations and Brazilian import regulations. This includes obtaining necessary health certificates, ensuring that products meet Brazilian sanitary standards, and providing detailed documentation such as invoices and packing lists for customs clearance.
