The food sector is one of the most dynamic and important parts of the European market. In 2024 EU agri-food exports exceeded EUR 234 billion and imports reached nearly EUR 195 billion. Every day millions of food products travel across Europe to arrive exactly on time on store shelves, in restaurants and in consumers’ homes. The expectations are significant, from maintaining the freshness of vegetables and dairy products to ensuring ideal refrigerated conditions for frozen goods to providing express deliveries of ready-to-eat snacks for customers with busy schedules.

Logistics must keep pace with evolving dietary trends, increasing globalisation of supply chains and strict sanitary regulations.

FMCG

Fast-Moving Consumer Goods are rapidly rotating everyday products that sell quickly and must be replenished just as fast. This category includes beverages, snacks, dairy products, cleaning supplies, cosmetics and hygiene items. These goods are defined by short life cycles, high sales volumes and often low margins, which means logistics plays a critical role. Any delay can result in an empty shelf and the fast turnover requires efficient inventory management and precise deliveries.

The most important trends and challenges shaping the modern food industry

In this sector the pace is rapid and the margin for error is minimal. Success in the food market depends on the reliability of the supply chain because any interruption or delay can result not only in financial losses but also in wasted products. To meet consumer expectations and remain competitive, companies need a logistics partner who understands the specificity of the food industry and can operate with the precision of a Swiss watch while maintaining the flexibility of a home cook improvising a new dish. Euro24 is exactly this kind of partner who combines professionalism with the agility required by food producers and distributors.

Temperature control:

Temperature control:

Maintaining the correct temperature is essential and even a small deviation can reduce product quality. Continuous monitoring is therefore crucial for frozen goods dairy products and meat.

Seasonality and demand fluctuations:

Seasonality and demand fluctuations:

Demand for food changes quickly, from winter sweets to summer ice cream. Seasonal harvests require intensive logistics, so flexible resource planning is essential.

Strict sanitary standards:

Strict sanitary standards:

Food products require the highest level of hygiene, so both the fleet and operational procedures must comply with ATP standards and safeguards that prevent contamination in line with systems such as HACCP and ISO 22000.

High expectations:

High expectations:

Customers expect fresh products throughout the year including exotic ones. This requires both suppliers and logistics partners to operate quickly punctually and flawlessly in all circumstances.

Price pressure:

Price pressure:

Low margins in the food sector require maximum efficiency. The entire supply chain must optimise costs, capacity utilisation and route planning.

High product turnover:

High product turnover:

Food products have short shelf lives and move through the supply chain very quickly. This requires efficient coordination, frequent loading operations and constant operational readiness.

Mini snacks:

Mini snacks:

The mini-format segment is the fastest growing category in the food industry. Store shelves are regularly filled with “mini versions” of well-known products and their turnover is increasing at a dynamic pace.

Traceability requirements:

Traceability requirements:

Full traceability is mandatory. The origin and location of every batch must be known and this requires continuous monitoring and detailed documentation.

Frozen products and premium ready-to-eat meals:

Frozen products and premium ready-to-eat meals:

Demand is rising for frozen products, ready-to-eat meals and premium items. These goods require stable temperature conditions and great care, from large-volume shipments to delicatessen-style deliveries.

Do you recognise these problems?

  • The carrier fails to maintain the required temperature or does not report temperature data
  • Lack of transport visibility and risk of losing a batch of goods
  • Insufficient flexibility during seasonal demand peaks
