Overview
When a reefer consignment arrives soft, spotted or short, the first question is whose fault it is: the fruit, the stowage or the cold chain. Answering that question takes more than a thermometer.
BCBD’s fruit inspectors have handled claims and prevention surveys in reefer containers, ships and warehouses for over 15 years, across fresh fruit from the most diverse origins. Alongside cargo knowledge, the team brings technical and nautical experience to every attendance: we measure temperature, assess quality and quantity — and we read and interpret data loggers from most manufacturers, which is often where a claim is won or lost.
Exporters, importers and cargo underwriters rely on our reports because each one is tailored to the consignment in front of us — not a template with the dates changed. Through our global network of fruit inspectors, the same standard travels with your cargo.
