The role of Last Mile Delivery in ensuring freshness and quality

In the evolving world of logistics and e-commerce, the term “last mile delivery” has gained significant traction. For companies like Thergis, which specialise in cold chain solutions , the last mile of delivery is not just a logistical consideration but a critical component in ensuring product integrity and customer satisfaction.

Understanding Last Mile Delivery

Last mile delivery refers to the final stage of the delivery process, where goods are transported from a distribution centre or hub to the end customer’s doorstep or local store. This phase is often the most challenging and costly part of the supply chain, yet it plays a critical  role in shaping the customer experience.

Importance of Last Mile Delivery for Thergis Products

Thergis products, are essential for maintaining the quality and freshness of perishable goods during transit. Whether it’s food, pharmaceuticals, or other temperature-sensitive items, these products are designed to regulate temperatures and prevent spoilage. However, their effectiveness depends significantly on how well they are handled and delivered during the last mile.

Ensuring Product Integrity

One of the primary concerns during last mile delivery is maintaining the integrity of Thergis products. Gel packs and ice packs, for instance, need to be kept at specific temperatures to remain effective. Thermal box liners must be handled with care to prevent damage that could compromise their insulating properties.

Minimising Environmental Impact

Efficient last mile delivery not only benefits customers and businesses but also contributes to sustainability efforts. By optimising routes, using eco-friendly packaging materials, and adopting innovative delivery methods, you can reduce your carbon footprint.  It is estimated that 7.9 million tons of food waste is produced by UK alone per year – make sure you aren’t contributing to this astronomical number by keeping your products chilled!

Conclusion

Thergis ensures that its gel packs, ice packs, and thermal box liners reach customers in optimal condition, thereby upholding product integrity and meeting customer expectations. As technology continues to evolve and consumer demands evolve, Thergis remains committed to delivering excellence in the last mile, contributing to a seamless and satisfying customer experience.
