Shipping Dry Food from Port Everglades to Genoa via Ocean Freight

Moisture-sensitive shelf-stable food Requires moisture-resistant inner packaging such as laminated liners inside sturdy outer cartons. Most shippers recommend adding Desiccant packs and using clear handling labels on all processed food shipments, especially when moving through humid or coastal routes.

You are allowed to ship Snacks and beverages together if all items are securely packed and beverages are placed at the bottom of the carton. We recommend using separate inner boxes for liquid items so that any leak does not damage surrounding dry food.

Most international shipments of packaged groceries Require detailed invoices listing full product descriptions, HS codes, and values. Depending on the destination and type of beverages, you could be asked for Health certificates and origin documentation, especially for animal-derived ingredients.

For shelf-stable food with medium fragility and mixed Snacks and beverages, insurance providers typically recommend all-risks freight insurance that includes damage from moisture and breakage. Be sure to Declare the full value of your beverages and record how goods are packed, as insurers may assess packaging quality when processing claims.

Most processed food and standard Bottled drinks are shipped in standard dry vans as long as you keep them within labeled storage temperatures. We recommend checking manufacturer guidelines on heat sensitivity, especially for sensitive beverages, and planning transit to minimize exposure to very hot or very cold environments.

Packaged food shipped from the United States to Italy must comply with EU food safety regulations, including proper labeling, ingredient disclosure, and adherence to hygiene standards. Additionally, import permits and phytosanitary certificates may be required depending on the nature of the food products.

Packaged food should be stored in a temperature-controlled environment to prevent spoilage and maintain quality during the ocean transit. It is essential to ensure that the packaging is robust enough to withstand the rigors of ocean shipping, including potential humidity and pressure changes.
