Food & Beverage Logistics

Two things drive food logistics: the temperature the product needs and its shelf life. Dealti Logistics moves packaged food, beverages, dry goods and pulses between Turkey and Central Asia. Temperature-controlled vehicles are used where the product requires it, and transit time is planned around shelf life.

Palletised food products loaded into a temperature-controlled vehicle

Cargo types and handling

  • Temperature-controlled products: in refrigerated vehicles; the temperature range and ventilation are set before loading
  • Dry goods and pulses: palletised sacks or boxed; covered, dry stacking against moisture and pests
  • Beverages: palletised, dense; weight distribution and pallet stability
  • Chocolate, confectionery and sensitive products: season and route planning to avoid high temperatures

Where different products travel together, odour transfer and contact with non-food cargo are prevented. The expiry date and remaining shelf life are shared before the shipment; the route and transit time are chosen accordingly.

Routes

  • From Turkey: export on the Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan lines, via Georgia and Azerbaijan on the Caspian crossing or through the Russia transit corridor
  • Route choice: the fastest corridor for short shelf-life products, cost priority for long-life products

How we handle it

For products that need temperature control, a refrigerated full or part load is proposed; for dry goods, a standard vehicle. Coordination of the health certificate, analysis report and, where required, veterinary or phytosanitary documents is carried out; issuing the documents themselves is the role of the competent authorities and laboratories.

On the basis of the commercial invoice, packing list, health documents and origin documents, transit (T1 / TIR) and CMR processes are handled by Dealti Logistics, with customs clearance coordinated through local brokers. The vehicle is GPS tracked and you have a single operations contact. The quote covers freight, border crossing and transit coordination for the stated route.
