Supermarket logistics for Central & South America and the Caribbean

Interwf’s supermarket logistics program makes it easy for grocery retailers and food distributors to buy from multiple vendors—across dry, chilled, and frozen categories—and consolidate everything into a single, compliant shipping container from Miami. We combine grocery logistics expertise with cold-chain technology so your stores and DCs receive exactly what was ordered, on time, and in spec.

What we do

  • Multi-temperature consolidation (dry + chilled + frozen): We build mixed loads with ambient, 0–4 °C, and frozen (≤ −18 °C) zones, validated to protect product quality and shelf life.

  • Vendor pooling and PO management: We coordinate pickups or receiving from many suppliers, reconcile purchase orders, and stage by store/DC, brand, or temperature band.

  • Weekly departures from Miami: Fixed cut-offs and frequent sailings/airfreight options to Central & South America and the Caribbean reduce lead times and stockouts.

  • Grocery delivery logistics to store or DC: Final-mile arrangements at destination with vetted partners, including delivery appointment scheduling and pallet-level proof of delivery.

  • Full compliance and certifications: FDA/USDA-registered facilities, Organic and GFSI/PrimusGFS practices, lot/batch traceability, export documents, and destination import support.
  • End-to-end visibility: Portal/API status by PO/SKU, milestone alerts, and lane-level temperature monitoring for cold-chain integrity.

How the program works

  1. Plan & book – share POs, vendor list, and temperature needs; we confirm cut-offs and capacity.
  2. Receive & QA – we receive from each supplier, check counts/labels/temps, and resolve exceptions.
  3. Consolidate by temperature – we build mixed loads with validated partitions and load maps.
  4. Export documentation – commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates (as required), and customs filings.
  5. Ship & track – ocean reefer LCL/FCL or air for urgent freight, with real-time status and temperature logs.
  6. Deliver – coordinated DC or store delivery, returns handling, and KPI reporting.
