Case Study: Optimizing Refrigerated LTL Shipping for Perishable Goods
A regional mid-sized food distributor struggled with inefficient refrigerated shipping because many shipments were too small to justify full truckload (FTL) transport, resulting in high costs and delays. R&R Global Logistics implemented a refrigerated less-than-truckload (LTL) strategy that consolidated smaller shipments and optimized routing while maintaining strict temperature control for perishable goods. By combining loads and eliminating the need to wait for full truck shipments, the distributor significantly improved delivery efficiency and supply-chain flexibility. Within the first 90 days, the solution reduced shipping costs by about 30% while maintaining product quality and reliability for temperature-sensitive products.
