Keeping the Summer’s Heat on Ice

Minuteman Transport aims to be the leading temperature-controlled less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier, providing exceptional service in California, Arizona, and Nevada. By engaging industry-leading personnel, facilities, and commitment, Minuteman ensures unparalleled service to the Pacific Southwest. Feeding the families of the Pacific Southwest is our mission.

Decades of Service and Innovation

Over the past 47 years of my involvement in the LTL perishable food delivery industry, there have been significant changes. However, Minuteman's dedication to service has remained constant, adapting to improve how the food chain's quality is safeguarded.

In the scorching summer months, maintaining proper temperature control becomes even more critical for food distribution.?

High temperatures can accelerate spoilage and increase the risk of foodborne illnesses.?Some foods need to be kept frozen and other foods require a specific temperature-controlled environment. The refrigerated delivery process begins in the warehouse.

?The Dream of a Multi-Temp Facility

About 20 years ago, I had a vision to enhance the care of products delivered by Minuteman. This vision led to the establishment of the City of Industry facility, which offers multi-temperature refrigerated storage.?

Our temperature-controlled facility allows Minuteman to:

• Maintain Quality:?By using varied temperature zones, the totally refrigerated facility ensures that different products receive the precise conditions they need. ?
• Ensure Safety:?Proper temperature management prevents spoilage and contamination.
• Prevent Heat-Related Spoilage:?By keeping products at optimal temperatures, Minuteman protects against the detrimental effects of heat.
• Ensure Reliability:?Customers can trust that their products will remain safe despite external temperature extremes.
• Exceed Standards:?While competitors may not share the same rigorous standards, Minuteman remains committed to excellence.

Commitment to Excellence

Minuteman stands out in the industry by continually evolving and setting high standards for food safety and quality. The combination of decades of experience and a state-of-the-art facility demonstrates Minuteman’s dedication to leading the way in temperature-controlled logistics.

?This commitment not only ensures customer satisfaction but also reinforces the integrity of the food supply chain across the Pacific Southwest, especially when it matters most during the hot summer months.
