Customer Story: Optimizing Perishables Logistics with Frigga Super-Bluetooth Gateway Solutions

In the competitive world of logistics, maintaining the integrity of temperature-sensitive products during transportation is crucial. Whether it's pharmaceuticals, fresh produce, or delicate electronics, ensuring optimal conditions throughout the supply chain can make or break a business. Maintaining the right conditions for merchandise during transport is critical for several reasons:

• Product Integrity and Safety: Temperature-sensitive products such as food, fruits and flowers require specific conditions to remain safe and effective. Deviations can lead to spoilage, reduced efficacy, or even hazardous situations.
• Economic Impact: The financial losses due to spoilage and waste are substantial. According to the Global Cold Chain Alliance, the global cold chain market was valued at $233.8 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow significantly. Inefficiencies and spoilage can cost businesses millions annually.?

Challenges in Supply and Cold Chain Logistics

1. Temperature Control: Keeping products within the required temperature range is challenging, especially during long transit times and varying external conditions.?
2. Real-Time Monitoring: Traditional monitoring methods often lack real-time capabilities, making it difficult to detect and respond to issues promptly.
3. Data Visibility: Comprehensive visibility into environmental conditions throughout the supply chain is essential for compliance and efficiency but is often lacking.
4. Waste and Cost Management: Reducing waste and managing costs while maintaining optimal conditions requires precise monitoring and timely interventions.
