Perishable Logistics Down COLD.
Railex assures you seamless logistics success from point of origin to final destination – with far fewer headaches and product spoilage along the way. This includes expedited coast-to-coast refrigerated freight shipping plus access to full 3PL (third party logistics) support:
We manage all aspects of perishables logistics: warehousing, inventory control, forward distribution, repacking and more.
Speed your goods to market with five-day coast to coast temperature-controlled private rail transport; 250,000 square-foot multi-temperature zone refrigerated distribution facilities, real-time inventory control, up to five days FREE storage and short-haul trucking.
We operate the largest weekly temperature-controlled TL & LTL system in North America with 50,000+ weekly pallet capacity now – and 75,000 once our new Jacksonville, Florida facility opens in summer 2014. Ship a little or a lot: it’s up to you.
No other shipping service can match our perishable transport care. From the moment we take possession of your goods to their final destination, we keep the cold chain. That saves you thawing, spoilage and product deterioration.
For instance, ethylene producing commodities such as cantaloupes when combined with ethylene sensitive commodities like honeydews can cause premature ripening. With Railex, mixed commodities are stored and shipped in optimal commodity segregated zones.
This often subjects your fragile items to prolonged weather extremes, shifting and damage from humping cars. Every Railex train unit powers non-stop coast to coast – no jostling and fewer delays. Interior temperatures are also monitored regularly, just in case something goes wrong.
With Railex as your perishable freight shipping and 3PL logistics partner, you’ll leverage temperature controlled facilities across the U.S. to drive more efficient forward distribution and just-in-time profitability.
