| Food & Other Dry Commodities |
| · |
| Food stuffs encompass all those supplies
which are destined for human or animal consumption. The diversity is striking: grain
shipped in bulk; bagged, packaged, drummed or bottled ingredients; processed food and
beverages; and the important sub-category of 'reefer' cargoes for refrigerated and chilled
food. Food cargoes are susceptible to a unique set of risks because they are inherently perishable and prone to rapid deterioration. In many incidents, unless action is taken swiftly, losses will usually be significant if not total. The work of CWA Food Department is extensive and covers all the high
volume commodities stored and shipped in bulk wheat, maize, corn, animal food,
rice, pulses as well as the handling and shipment of fresh and frozen produce such as
fruit, vegetables, meat and seafood. Its common purpose is to assist in the risk
management of the safe and profitable international trade of these and allied foodstuffs. |
