An exported farmer asks us: What is the maximum time for the avocado to be in excellent condition in a refrigerated container?
Before responding, we asked for the dry matter percentage of that shipment and he informed us that it was 26%, to which we responded that it would have a transit life of 40 days under normal conditions, using Cold Wind System technology. He asked us if we could support him remotely, because at that time the App was still being programmed, over the phone we gave him instructions on what they should do. Weeks later, they told us that the shipment had arrived in perfect condition, with 45 days of transit. If we add to this 6 more days for cutting and preparing the fruit, in total the product was preserved for 51 days.
This case is interesting, because the ship that transported him to Japan was very large and there was no space in the port to unload, so he went to Korea, they unloaded him there and from there they returned him to Yokohama, in a smaller ship; You can imagine the anguish that both the agricultural exporter and his client experienced those days, visualizing the loss that said delay would represent. And surprise…!, the fruit arrived in perfect condition for sale.
