The Secret to Keeping Grapes Juicy

Freshliance Fresh Tag 1E single use USB temperature data logger can be used to monitor and record temperature changes of grapes during cold chain logistics, storage and processing, ensuring grapes are under the correct temperature all the time to keep them fresh.

Grapes are one of the top 20 agricultural commodities produced worldwide. Grape is either consumed fresh as table grapes or processed into different forms, such as wine, raisins (dried grapes), jams, jellies, juices, and so on. Grapes often move by the truck and freighter. Transporting grapes and other fresh fruit with a short shelf life involves something called the Cold Chain Logistics Process. This process involves moving and storing fruits, vegetables, and other commodities at a certain cool temperature. This is especially important for grapes, as they are quite delicate and extremely sensitive to changes in temperature.

“Cold Chain” means that every step in the logistics process must keep the fruit at a specific temperature throughout its entire transit, from start to finish. Since there are often many stops in the logistics process, that means more than just the truck that moves the grapes needs to be kept cold. Warehouses, trucks, and destination ports must all be at the correct temperature to keep the grapes fresh. This is true for any space that holds the shipment, even if only for a short time. A temperature of 0 degrees Celsius, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit, is recommended for storing and transporting grapes. If at any point in the process, the shipment is stored at the wrong temperature, it is likely to be rejected at the destination. This can result in profit loss for the carrier, the shipper, and any involved third parties.
