Summary

Safe food transportation has been our food supply chain's quiet and dependable link for years. Due to world instability and questions about supply chain security, this industry has received growing attention. GCCA Transportation is well-positioned to represent the sector's best practices globally. Cold chain logistics involves transporting temperature-controlled products along a supply chain using refrigerated packaging solutions to preserve the quality of products such as fresh agricultural goods, seafood, frozen food, and pharmaceuticals.
The Cold Chain – Transportation Best Practices guide provides current safe food transportation best practices. It is focused on ensuring that persons engaged in the transportation of food at the most significant risk for contamination during transportation follow appropriate sanitary transportation practices. Within this guide are industry best practices concerning cleaning, inspection, maintenance, loading, and unloading of, as well as the operation of vehicles and transportation equipment to ensure that food is transported under the conditions and controls necessary to prevent adulteration linked to food safety. Given the importance placed on safe food transport, the International Refrigerated Transportation Association decided in 2015 to create this Refrigerated Transportation Best Practice Guide with the support of stakeholders, shippers, loaders, carriers, and receivers in drafting industry best practices. Best practices are implemented to maintain the cold chain; therefore, for 2024, the title has changed to Cold Chain ¬– Transportation Best Practices.
