Canada’s harsh winter conditions bring a unique set of challenges to the logistics industry. Snowstorms, icy roads, and sub-zero temperatures can disrupt transportation networks, making routes unpredictable and potentially hazardous. These disruptions lead to delays, safety risks for drivers, and complications in maintaining delivery schedules. For products sensitive to freezing temperatures, such as food, pharmaceuticals, and other temperature-critical goods, the stakes are even higher. Without proper handling, these items risk spoilage or damage, causing financial losses and customer dissatisfaction.
