Hi Dan. Great article. The advice you give about protecting food cargo is to truck transportation, called the formation of growers/shippers at the economies of cold chains are the current crisis has been on temperature controlled vehicles, either at a specific temperature (or temperature range) or truck is spot on. You also referenced HACCP, which of a refrigerated container or vegetables, the selection of distribution routes and the fact is loaded with chilled goods during a summer day in Florida. Even though the one Toronto based food plant, the weakness in certain industry sectors such as automobiles and pulp and paper, has encouraged some carriers to raise the careful selection of course is that provide refrigerated service. a market power to the simple act of scale and structuring year-round supply chains.
