We sell chocolates and continually monitor the weather conditions for shipping to ensure the product arrives to the customer in top quality. We monitor our dispatch location and the delivery location weather conditions. 'Fortunately' we do not have extremely hot weather here in the UK (we get the odd hot weather spike) and the duration the product is in the postal system is less than 24hrs.
I was wondering how other businesses around the world in bigger countries, with more extreme weather deal with shipping temperature sensitive products such as ice cream, chocolates, cheese, candles etc?
We don't ship anything being a Fish and Chip store, but we did stop deliveries because we couldn't guarantee the orders would be picked up in a timely manner and we started getting complaints.
