Honestly, I'm at my wits' end here. We've got a decent setup at our warehouse in Ajman, but the moment our trucks hit the road for deliveries across Dubai and Sharjah, it feels like all that careful temperature control just goes out the window. We're losing way too much product to temperature fluctuation during transit, especially on those days when we have multiple stops and the back of the van keeps getting opened and closed. I was discussing this with a fellow distributor over the weekend and he mentioned that his team switched their entire logistics approach after reading about storage practices UAE seafood distribution businesses have adopted to tackle exactly this problem, and it got me thinking that maybe my issue is more about the insulation of my transport containers rather than just relying on the van's cooling system. I've been looking into getting some proper insulated tubs for seafood transport in UAE but honestly the options are overwhelming and I don't want to drop a ton of money on something that doesn't actually perform well in our specific conditions. Does anyone have recommendations for tubs that actually hold temperature for 4-5 hours on the road without needing to top up ice constantly? I'd really appreciate some real world experiences before I make a purchase decision.
