Improved conditions for perishables at Toronto airport
Air Canada Cargo is extending its collaboration with its handling partner in Toronto (Canada) to include all "AC Cool Chain" shipments. From today, 16 September 2019, in addition to pharmaceuticals, shipments booked with the "AC Fresh" solution flowing through Toronto, a key gateway for international perishable shipping, will be handled by GTA Dnata.
Its facility is fully equipped for handling temperature-sensitive consignments, since it has a temperature controlled dedicated environment for perishables (15 to 25 degrees Celsius) and separate coolers for storage in specific ranges (2 to 8 degrees Celsius).
Goods concerned include Canadian exports and shipments from the US, Central and South America destined for Europe and Asia, like seafood, chilled meats, fruit, vegetables, herbs and fresh flowers. (ah)
