Frozen Food Cold Storage
Deciding to entrust your frozen food to a third-party cold store is convenient, safe and advantageous from many points of view. The first element to take into consideration is the correct management of the cold chain, which is fundamental for the preservation of food at all stages of the logistics chain.
Logistics warehouses such as MWM allow companies handling frozen food to store their goods in certified, supervised and constantly monitored cold stores. Cold storage for frozen products (-20° C) ensures that products are stored at the right temperature and at the same time offers numerous economic and fiscal benefits.
The importance of temperature management
Correct food storage temperature management is the basis of food logistics and must be carried out to the highest quality and safety standards.
Cold storage for frozen food allows products to be stored in a safe, sanitized and protected environment, in line with HACCP requirements for the correct storage of fresh or packaged products.
Goods requiring cold storage must respect the cold chain at every stage of storage and handling to ensure that the end consumer receives a product that is safe, wholesome and intact in its taste and nutritional properties.
Organization and mutual exchange for proper food storage
The efficient performance of logistical operations in food – and beyond – is the result of careful organization of activities throughout the handling chain. Correct storage and constant temperature monitoring in the cold store is carried out in a precise and structured manner, using established working methods and state-of-the-art equipment.
For a logistics strategy to be successful, it is important that a close collaboration is established between the company and the third-party manager. The reciprocal exchange of information with the customer is a decisive aspect for MWM in order to optimally manage the product’s storage path, from its introduction into the cold store to the consumer’s table.
Cold storage of frozen food: fiscal advantages
Cold storage also offers economic and fiscal benefits. The cold store for frozen food can also act as bonded warehouse, allowing import-export companies to store their goods without advancing the cost of VAT and import duties.
This is a considerable advantage – also in light of the current international geopolitical scene – which allows companies to plan their procurement activities with peace of mind even in the long term.
The Bonded cold store allows goods to be stored and handled, postponing the payment of duties until the time of sale. This facilitates international trade activities and reduces financial exposure, avoiding anticipated cash outflows.
Reliability, transparency and trust at the heart of every logistics strategy
MWM offers cold storage services for frozen foodstuffs, proposing measured and modular logistics solutions that can range from simple storage in cold rooms to integrated management of the entire goods handling chain.
Each project is built in a flexible and customized manner, always starting with the customer relationship. This is a shared path that focuses on transparency, reliability and mutual trust; fundamental values that contribute to the achievement of business objectives and the constant improvement of the logistics strategy.
