Love is in the Air at CrowleyFresh
CrowleyFresh, Miami’s newest cold-chain warehouse and logistics service, jointly offered by Crowley Maritime Corporation and subsidiary Customized Brokers, recently showed a little love to customer Sunshine Bouquet Company, a flower supplier based in Miami, by storing 110 pallets of fresh Colombian roses in advance of Valentine’s Day. The colorful, fragrant and perishable cargo was stored in CrowleyFresh’s 17,000 square-foot cold storage facility and the flowers were released to the U.S. market just in time for the holiday.
CrowleyFresh is a partnership between Crowley and Customized Brokers that bundles individual cold-chain storage and logistics offerings into one comprehensive solution. The cold storage facility features multiple humidity and temperature-controlled coolers and is open 24/7 to accommodate perishables being imported and exported to/from Latin America, the Caribbean, Europe, Asia and the Far East and South Florida. The state-of-the-art facility is ideal for perishable storage or may be used as an in-transit consolidation/deconsolidation point. With 400,000 total cubic feet of refrigerated space, the facility offers additional storage space for dry, non-perishable cargo.
When you’re shipping temperature-sensitive goods, like flowers or chocolates for Valentine’s Day, every second counts. Shippers of perishables need a reliable and committed cold-chain logistics partner who has industry-leading specialized equipment and experience,” said Crowley’s Nelly Yunta; vice president; sales, marketing and customer care. “We love that we can offer this and more, including a diverse suite of additional logistics capabilities, such as Customs brokerage, air freight and trucking services, any day of the year, but especially on Valentine’s Day!”
