Harvests and perishables that arrive in the condition they left

Grain, oilseeds, dried fruit, fresh produce and packaged food all have one thing in common: they are judged on arrival. We combine grain hoppers, ventilated wagons and reefer containers with temperature monitoring and clean-cargo discipline, so quality is protected from the field to the buyer.

−18 °C to +12 °C

Reefer temperature range

5–8 days

Typical reefer transit China–Iran

Clean cargo

Dedicated washing procedure

What can go wrong with agricultural cargo

Perishables and foodstuffs punish delay and contamination far more harshly than industrial freight.

Temperature breaks

A single unmonitored stop in summer or a plugged reefer on a winter platform can spoil a whole container of fruit or dairy.

Contamination risk

Grain and food products must not follow chemicals or dusty cargo. The previous load in a wagon decides whether your consignment is exportable.

Quarantine and phytosanitary rules

Import countries demand certificates, fumigation records and often inspections on arrival, which need to be lined up before loading.

How we protect agricultural cargo

Temperature control, clean equipment and certificates prepared before the truck reaches the terminal.

Reefer containers with monitoring

Live temperature logging from gate-in to delivery, with the data exported as a PDF report so any deviation is visible immediately rather than after a claim.

Clean-wagon discipline

Grain and foodstuffs travel only in inspected and washed equipment, with photographic proof of condition recorded before loading.

Phytosanitary and certificate handling

Health, phytosanitary, fumigation and origin certificates are checked against the importing country's current rules before the cargo is dispatched.

Fast corridor planning

For produce and dried fruit we prefer routings with the fewest border stops and reserve priority slots where the corridor offers them.

Transport modes for agricultural cargo

The product decides the equipment: bulk, ventilated or temperature-controlled.

Grain hoppers and box wagons

Bulk wheat, barley, maize and oilseeds in covered hoppers or lined box wagons, loaded against moisture and weight limits.

Ventilated wagons for dried goods

Raisins, nuts, pulses and dried fruit travel in ventilated equipment that keeps condensation away without refrigeration cost.

Reefer and insulated containers

Fresh fruit, vegetables, dairy and frozen products in reefer boxes with a pre-trip inspection and set-point confirmed at stuffing.

Cargo and equipment

Agricultural and food products we move throughout the year.

Grain and oilseeds

Wheat, barley, maize, soybeans and safflower in covered hoppers, often as seasonal train programmes at harvest.

Dried fruit, nuts and pulses

Raisins, dates, pistachios and legumes in ventilated wagons or clean boxes, with moisture and insect-control measures agreed in advance.

Fresh and chilled produce

Fruit and vegetables in reefer containers with continuous temperature recording and the shortest available transit through borders.

Packaged and processed food

Beverages, edible oils and packaged foods on pallets, in clean containers or box wagons, with handling kept to a minimum.

From farm to buyer

Five stages built around the fact that quality cannot be re-created later.

  1. 01

    Product and market check

    We confirm the product, its required temperature or dryness, and the certificates the destination country currently demands.

  2. 02

    Equipment selection

    Reefer, ventilated or clean bulk equipment is selected and reserved, and the pre-trip inspection is documented.

  3. 03

    Loading supervision

    We attend stuffing or loading to verify temperature, seals, cleanliness and weight, with photographs stored in your portal.

  4. 04

    Monitored transit

    Milestone updates at each border, temperature data available on request, and immediate escalation if a reefer alarms.

  5. 05

    Delivery and documentation

    On arrival we hand over the container with its temperature report and complete certificate set, ready for inspection at destination.
