Transport methods for frozen products are chosen according to origin and destination. Because due to the sensitivity of the product and the high price of refrigerated transportation, we need maximum transportation efficiency.

Refrigerated trucks should be used to transport frozen goods to Russia, Central Asia, Turkey, and Europe. Transport by refrigerated truck has the following advantages:

• The cost of land transport is much lower than air transport, and as a result, it is more economical to use ground transportation.

• Land transport has much shorter travel times than sea transport, so goods reach their destination sooner.

• There is no need to transit the goods from one custom to another by land transport, while it is necessary to do this by sea transport.

• Compared to other methods of moving goods, road transport packing is very simple. To move different goods by land, very little packaging is needed. Packaging may not be necessary in some cases.

Refrigerated goods are sent to the Persian Gulf countries and East Asia in refrigerated containers. Goods are usually sent daily to countries such as China, Thailand, Malaysia, Qatar, Bahrain, UAE, Kuwait, Iraq, and Oman. This method has the following advantages:

• Much lower cost than other methods

• Safety of goods in the container

• Carrying goods with high volume and weight

• Fixed rates for international transport companies

This ensures fresh product delivery. Refrigerated goods are transported to other countries in refrigerated containers via containership.
