In refrigerated logistics, reefer cargo replenishment is triggered by actual demand signals from the receiving end rather than forecasts. The consignee signals its requirement for temperature-controlled goods, prompting the supplier or distribution centre to dispatch stock – achieving just-in-time supply while reducing on-hand inventory and spoilage risk. This pull mechanism is especially valuable for perishables such as pharmaceuticals, fresh foods, or biologics, where minimizing storage duration directly preserves product integrity and regulatory compliance.
