38 origin countries.
6 primary corridors.
Each corridor is engineered with port-specific pre-cooling protocols, vessel allocation, and customs clearance pre-filing — not improvised on departure day.
Because 0.6% is still a six-figure spoilage event.
Clearance is not an afterthought.
It's pre-filed before departure.
Every Coldchain shipment arrives at the EU border with documents filed, BIP pre-notified, and phytosanitary certificates cross-referenced. No surprises. No detention. No spoilage.
at EU border in 2025.
EU phytosanitary regulations updated Q4 2025: Avocado imports from Mexico now require enhanced pesticide residue testing (MRL compliance for chlorpyrifos). Coldchain pre-clears all shipments against current EFSA MRL tables before container stuffing.
One spec sheet per commodity.
Because blueberries and avocados are not the same problem.
