Export Services
Risk-managed, compliance-assured food exports for institutional and commercial buyers who demand clarity, consistency, and regulatory reliability.
What We Handle
End-to-end from farm gate to airport
Each service is built around the compliance evidence and service pace professional traders demand.
Cold Chain & Logistics Management
Harvest scheduling, group logistics, and refrigerated transport keep produce fresh and export deadlines reliable — from field collection and pre-cooling through packhouse receipt to timely airport delivery.
Post-Harvest Handling & FIFO Storage
A First-In, First-Out inventory system minimises storage time and protects high-value crops like avocado and passion fruit, with rapid post-harvest handling into the correct storage environment on arrival.
IoT Cold-Chain Monitoring
Refrigerated trucks carry IoT sensors that track temperature and humidity from farm to delivery in real time, with immediate corrective action if conditions move outside set tolerances.
QR Traceability & Digital Dossiers
Every box and bag records batch, grower ID, harvest date, and compliance status — accessible to buyers via QR code or digital dossier to support audits and rapid issue resolution.
Packaging, Labelling & Buyer Alignment
For buyers needing specific packaging, labelling, or format to meet regulatory, retail, or operational standards, we work directly with your procurement and logistics teams to achieve full alignment.
Compliance & Audit-Ready Documentation
Audit-ready systems, continuous staff training, and documented compliance mean consignments meet the entry requirements of retailers, foodservice operators, and institutional buyers across the UK, EU, US, and Middle East.
