Temperature controlled contract packing
Meeting the demand for flexible and reliable temperature controlled contract packing
It’s hard for retailers and suppliers to predict consumers’ demands. Weekly variances can be as high as 50%: influenced by seasonal peaks and troughs, availability of raw materials, and the weather. Even a recession impacts consumer spending – resulting in a greater demand for (cheaper) frozen food.
Reliable contract packing services within a temperature controlled environment are an important link in the product lifecycle – impacting product availability and sales. With an emphasis on quality control, excellent hygiene standards and customer centricity: TDG provides a bespoke service to meet the needs of frozen and chilled product manufacturers and suppliers across the food, pharmaceutical and chemical sectors.
TDG’s European network of over 130 sites includes 18 temperature controlled warehousing facilities for frozen and chilled storage. All sites provide contract packing capabilities and the support of a national transport network. TDG maintains exceptional standards including: British Retail Consortium (BRC) accreditation, and the Medical Retail Handling Agency (MRHA) wholesale dealers licence.
