Trinity Logistics has been in business for over 45 years and works with thousands of shippers in the food and beverage industry, making us well-versed in its requirements and regulations.

We are a full-service logistics solutions provider that can arrange freight transport for your dry or temperature-controlled food shipping or beverage logistics, dry and cold storage to keep your goods stocked, and any multi-drop loads to different customers.

There’s no need for multiple logistics providers. We offer multimodal solutions for shipping food, from truckload to international ocean or air, we have all the logistics solutions you need to adapt to changing market conditions and support your food and beverage manufacturing business growth.

Never second guess where your food and beverage products are. Trinity has several technology options, such as our Customer Portal or Transportation Management System, to keep you fully informed and aware of your freight, offering you visibility and reduced transportation risks.

We understand your supply chain never sleeps. That’s why we have a dedicated After-Hours Team to continue the monitoring of your freight and ready to quickly resolve any potential challenges, no matter the time of night, holidays, and every weekend.

Keeping food and beverage products safe for consumption is important. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) is transforming the nation’s food safety system into one that is based on the prevention of foodborne illnesses. Our job is to ensure transporting your product meets these standards.

Safety and service are our highest priority. Our strong network of carrier relationships includes many experienced food shipping and cold chain logistics companies that have extensive knowledge of your product. Our rigorous carrier vetting consists of verifying any additional needs like FSMA compliance and reefer breakdown coverage or seafood exclusions.

Trinity Logistics understands the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act (PACA) and its requirements to ensure we minimize the need for unnecessary claims. If a problem occurs, our in-house Team will negotiate produce claims on your behalf.

Whether you need a single solution for shipping food or you’re looking for a completely outsourced option, we never confine you to just one box. Every business in the food and beverage industry is unique, so our logistics solutions are customizable based on your company’s needs.

Our Team Member experts do more than just arrange your food shipping. We stay knowledgeable about what’s going on in the food and beverage industry, participate in industry associations like the International Fresh Produce Association, and keep you up to date on any industry news, upcoming regulation changes, or any other relevant information that your business may need to stay successful.
