Fresh Connection

We keep an eye on the details.

In perishables logistics, small details can make a big difference.

That’s why we work quickly and efficiently, without ever compromising on quality.

If we receive damaged pallets or boxes, we take immediate action. We repair the damage or replace the pallet to ensure your goods can continue their journey safely.

No leaning towers in our cold store, we like to keep every pallet stable, secure and ready for transport.

Pineapple season is in full swing!

At our warehouse, we have dedicated several cold rooms to pineapples, as they require significantly lower temperatures than bananas.

There is another important difference between the two fruits. While bananas continue to ripen after harvest, pineapples do not.

That makes proper storage even more important. By maintaining the right temperature and conditions throughout the cold chain, we help preserve the quality and freshness of every pineapple that passes through our warehouse.

That’s where our dedicated cooling units make all the difference.

Why are bananas cooled during transport, but not in the supermarket?

It might seem strange. During transport and storage, bananas are kept at carefully controlled temperatures, yet in supermarkets they are no longer refrigerated, and at home bananas are best kept out of the fridge, as low temperatures can negatively affect their quality.

So, why is that?

Bananas travel thousands of kilometres before reaching Europe, and that journey takes time. During transport, cooling helps slow down the ripening process and keeps the fruit fresh. Without temperature control, bananas would arrive overripe long before reaching the shelves.

At the same time, bananas are sensitive products. If temperatures drop too low, quality can quickly be affected. That’s why maintaining the right temperature throughout the cold chain is essential.

On top of that, bananas are transported in specialised bags, helping to preserve freshness and carefully control ripening during the journey.
