Fruit export logistics is a fusiontimeliness、Temperature control、complianceThe complex supply chain system,The core challenge lies in the perishable nature of fruits、The characteristic of short shelf life,Must simultaneously meet the requirements of the exporting country(region)The quarantine、Tariffs and quality requirements of the importing market。
The freshness of fruits directly depends on “temperature stability”,Full temperature control is required throughout the process:
- Temperature control equipment:Using GPS positioning、A refrigerator with real-time temperature upload function / container,Data can be synchronized to the cloud,Easy for enterprise monitoring。
- Temperature redundancy design:reserve ±1℃Temperature fluctuation space(As set 5℃,Actual control in 4-6℃),Avoid extreme situations that may cause freezing damage or decay。
- Emergency Plan:If the temperature is abnormal during transportation,Emergency plans need to be triggered in a timely manner(If you stop at the nearby cold chain warehouse for maintenance、Replace transportation vehicles)。
Different countries / Quarantine in the region、Significant differences in standards,Accurate adaptation is required in advance:
- Quarantine requirements:Such as Japan's attitude towards Chinese apples “alternaria mali roberts ” Strict quarantine,Orchard pest and disease monitoring records are required；The European Union prohibits the import of goods containing “chlorpyrifos” Fruits waiting for pesticide residues。
- Label requirements:The United States requires outer box labeling “Country of Origin、Production Date、shelf life、Importer information”；Saudi Arabia requires labels to include Arabic translation。
- Certification requirements:Exporting organic fruits requires providing “Organic Certification Certificate”(Like EU Organic Certification、USDA Organic Certification in the United States)。
Fruit exports involve orchards、Packaging factory、freight forwarder、customs、shipping company、Multiple parties including destination country agents,Need to go through:
- Information synchronization:Using SCM(Supply Chain Management System)Shared goods status(As for location、temperature、Customs clearance progress)；
- Advance docking:Confirm customs clearance requirements in advance with the destination country's agent,Avoid delays due to missing files；
- Service provider screening:Choose a freight forwarder with experience in exporting fruits(Like specialization “Fresh cold chain” The logistics company)。
in short,The core of fruit export logistics is “Fresh first、Based on regulations”—— Ensuring quality through precise temperature control,Integrate processes through compliant operations,Ultimately achieving the transition from orchards to overseas dining tables “Fresh delivery”。
