For companies in the food service industry, and retailers and producers dealing with food-grade commodities, the costs and complexities of refrigerated warehousing can be high. You need to maintain your perishable products – from fruits and vegetables, to coffee, dairy, meat, fish, or anything else – in a consistent and reliable environment. The right cold storage solution is critical.
To provide its cold storage customers a simple and cost effective transportation service, US Perishables (USP) has introduced a logistics offering to assist customers with the storage and final delivery of goods. USP maintains a portfolio of cold storage warehouse locations, and is dedicated to designing, constructing and operating state-of-the-art temperature controlled warehouses throughout the United States. Utilizing an online tracking system, the logistics offering enables customers to monitor their product from port to freezer and freezer to final customer destinations.
USP has long been known for innovation and leadership in the cold storage outsourcing market, as well as its “We Get It Done”, customer approach. This same superior service approach is the foundation of the new USP Logistics division, and much awaited logistics offering. “Our goal is to simplify the transportation sourcing, management and execution process for our customers,” said Sean Mackay, Vice President, Sales. Daily added, “We are working every day to bring a level of simplicity and service yet to be demonstrated in this industry.”
The new USP Logistics offering allows customers to inventory their product in the most advantageous location, and also leverage the benefits of consolidation of goods with other outbound shipments to maximize transportation efficiencies. USP Logistics seamlessly consolidates the goods and executes the entire transportation process, including carrier payment. This offers more flexibility, inventory control and immediate cost savings to the cold chain customer.
