MAR 15, 2005 (newstodate): British Airways World Cargo has launched "Constant Fresh", a new global perishables product as part of a one million Pound investment in its perishables handling service.
The Constant Fresh product is available on the entire BA World Cargo route network.
Procedures relating to acceptance and handling of perishable goods at all points have been reviewed and strengthened to ensure total integrity of the supply chain.
The launch is an integral part of a major investment in BA World Cargo's Perishables Handling Centre at London Heathrow to install new hoists, which will increase capacity and drive greater efficiencies throughout the handling process.
Work is underway and is due for completion by July 2005.
In 2004 BAWC handled over 115,000 tonnes of perishable goods, the company says.
