MundoMaritimo's excellent 3-day event overview of Cool Logistics Global

For 13 years, the Cool Logistics Global conference has shed light on all aspects of the refrigerated containerized supply chain – the ‘cold chain’.  From fresh fruits and veggies, flowers, meats, seafood and medicines – there are millions of perishable items that need to remain cool in transit. And our annual conference provides a unique forum for the perishables trade, cold chain and reefer shipping community to come together. 

The 13th edition of the world’s leading forum for the cold chain and reefer shipping community took place online this year from 19 – 21 October.  Our media colleagues at MundoMaritimo pick up our story and report on three packed days of insight, discussion and debate.

Cool Logistics Global 2021 took place from 19 – 21 October and our second session on day one included discussion on port delays.  Our panel of Sarah Schlueter of Hapag-Lloyd, Robert Sappio of SeaCube Containers, Andrew Lorimer of Datamar and Diego Barriga of Lancaster and Foodcareplus all agreed that congestion rather than container shortages is in fact the major cause of the delays.
