Perishable-food shippers are particular about their products and supply chain partners because ultimately they serve mutual consumer interests: those of the buyer and those of the gourmand.Finicky consumers breed equally selective wholesalers and retailers, who in turn hold suppliers, producers, carriers, and other cold chain intermediaries to high standards and expectations.
On top of the usual shipment protocol required for moving consumer goods in a time-sensitive supply chain, food shipments have limited shelf life and demand special handling, both in storage and in transport. Time lost in transshipment translates at best to a shortened selling window; at worst to dead inventory or unsatisfied consumers. Accuracy and compliance requirements for perishables, therefore, are among the tightest in the industry.
