Chilled food

Chilled food travels under controlled positive temperature without freezing, generally between 0°C and 8°C depending on the item.

Unlike frozen goods, there is no safety margin from a frozen mass here: any prolonged fluctuation shortens the shelf life that reaches the destination. Pre-cooling at origin is also decisive, because a refrigeration system holds temperature but does not correct cargo that was loaded warm.

AVM Cargo reviews the cargo information, such as temperature range, ventilation and acceptable transit time, coordinates the partners involved, follows the shipment and keeps the client informed throughout the process. Each operation is assessed individually according to the characteristics of the goods, origin, destination and shipping conditions, and our team advises on the information needed to make the quotation and the operation viable.
