Refrigerated courier industry – Challenges

Posted on: 17/08/2022

Transport market facing a range of challenges, difficulty in providing a complete refrigerated same day courier service whilst keeping costs competitive

A national driver shortage, changes in regulations due to Brexit, fuel cost rises and the aftermath of the pandemic have presented a harsh landscape for suppliers needing same-day refrigerated deliveries, HGV and transport. The effects of this have been far-reaching and on the same day, the refrigerated sector has not been exempt from the difficult period.

Many companies that supply nationwide for some of the country’s favourite brands have not had enough drivers to meet operational commitments. As time-sensitive consignments with looming deadlines needed to be adhered to and contracts with high-value customers hanging in the balance, many food chain suppliers turned their attention to the refrigerated courier service. Companies like Collect Same Day Couriers were able to provide flexible, reliable vehicles, all fitted with advanced onboard equipment and temperature recording devices, to guarantee same-day chilled and frozen consignments.

Many suppliers have bespoke and intricate logistics operations, so the need for a company that understands the needs of the customer and can undertake complex logistical operations, whilst maintaining a reliable and flexible service is paramount in these trying times for the industry.
