Exporting food products: Many countries around the world lack the necessary conditions for cultivating and producing food and agricultural products. As a result, they need to import essential products for their communities from other countries. In contrast, several countries, including Iran, have favorable conditions such as suitable climate and diverse resources for growing various food and agricultural products. These countries can meet their own food requirements and even export surplus agricultural and food products to other nations that are importers.

Currently, there are 34 countries in the world that, due to factors such as unsuitable climate or lack of agricultural land, cannot produce the necessary food products and need to import them from other countries. This has led some nations, including Iran, to become top exporters globally.

Food export

To engage in business activities and export food products to other countries, it’s essential to have sufficient information about target markets and destination countries. Proper marketing for food products is necessary, and ultimately, packaging the products elegantly and appropriately is crucial for successful exports. The process of exporting food products involves several complex stages, which we’ll explore further.

The trade of food and agricultural products

Iran’s extensive and diverse food and agricultural production has fostered widespread trade in food products. Many experienced and knowledgeable traders engage in various aspects of food export, aiming for substantial profits and income. Their efforts contribute to the global market, where they aspire to become top exporters and successful participants in the food trade.

It is predicted that in the coming years, many countries around the world will rely on imports from other nations to meet approximately half of their food and agricultural product needs. The complexities of food trade include various factors such as packaging techniques, innovative storage methods, transportation logistics, understanding dietary habits and preferences in destination countries, and assessing the purchasing power of their populations. Let’s delve into two specific stages of this intricate process.

Packaging of food products

Packaging of products is crucial because it not only affects the appearance and safety of the items but also impacts their cost and price. Exporters handle packaging, ensuring it complies with standards and aligns with the preferences of target markets. The goal is to safeguard products during export and prevent any damage.

  • Packaging for export must be environmentally suitable for the destination countries and markets.
  • It should comply with the standards and regulations of the target markets.
  • It represents the Iranian identity and the identity of exporters and producers.
  • Packaging should incorporate innovation.

Transporting food products

The two types of food products are perishable and non-perishable. Perishable products deteriorate over time, losing their initial quality and becoming unusable. Non-perishable items, on the other hand, remain stable and do not spoil.

Non-perishable food products fall into two categories: those that lose their freshness and quality within a few hours, such as vegetables, various types of fish, and shrimp. These products are often transported by air.

The second category includes products that lose their quality after a few days. Examples of such products are dairy items and yogurt, which are typically transported using refrigerated trucks and vans.

Things that special transport machines should pay attention to:

  • Restricting Unauthorized Access: It’s essential to prevent unauthorized individuals, especially non-employees, from entering areas where food products are stored.
  • Temperature Control: Maintaining the necessary and appropriate temperature conditions in both warm and cold storage facilities.
  • Adhering to Cold and Hot Chain: Ensuring that the cold and hot chain is maintained for food products based on the specific requirements of each type of item.
  • Frozen Products: When transporting frozen products, pay attention to their freezing state and verify their condition.
  • Avoid Contact: Food products should not come into direct contact with the floor of transportation compartments.
  • Pre-Cooling and Pre-Heating: Implement pre-cooling and pre-heating processes before loading food products.
  • Temperature Monitoring: Monitor the temperature inside transportation compartments.
  • Cleanliness and Odor Control: Ensure cleanliness in transportation compartments and vehicles, eliminating any unpleasant or unusual odors.
  • Disinfection of Contact Surfaces: Disinfect surfaces that come into contact with food products.

Given the population and growth of countries, no country can produce and supply all the necessary items for its society on its own. In this situation, the importance of exporting food products to meet the needs of society becomes clear. By exporting food products, developing countries can improve the quality of their products and goods, which leads to the emergence and increase of competition among product manufacturers worldwide.
