Broccoli has a short post-harvest life and loses quality quickly without temperature control. A disciplined cold chain — from forced-air pre-cooling at the packhouse to a stable reefer setting near 0–2 °C — is the difference between a bright, uniform load and a yellowed arrival.

Fast pre-cooling after harvest

Within hours of picking, broccoli moves through hydro-cooling or forced-air cooling to pull the core temperature down fast. This locks in the deep green florets and firm heads that importers demand, and dramatically extends display life at destination.

Grading and sizing for retail and food service

Heads are trimmed to export standard, graded by diameter and weight, and packed in perforated poly liners inside cartons that maintain humidity without trapping ethylene. Specification sheets allow buyers to lock in a consistent head profile load after load.

Temperature monitoring across the voyage

Reefer set points, airflow and vent schedules are set per route to prevent freezing damage and condensation. Optional temperature loggers provide full transparency for importers verifying cold-chain integrity at arrival.
