Global companies in the perishables industry need a partner who can provide temperature-controlled transportation with the appropriate infrastructure to store and handle time-sensitive shipments.

 Israel-based BT9 introduced Xsense Grading, a standardized measurement tool designed to improve the management of the entire cold supply chain, ensuring that all stakeholders in the cold supply chain have full transparency and control over their perishables, anywhere in the world, at any given time.  

Tony’s Fine Foods, West Sacramento, Calif., acquired substantially all of the assets of Ideal Food Products, Inc., a Portland, Ore.-based perishable foods distributor.
