Shipping perishable goods—whether it’s food, pharmaceuticals, or speciality products—is a massive logistics challenge. If a shipment is delayed, it’s not just an inconvenience. It can mean spoiled products, financial losses, and unnecessary waste. So how can technology help?
In this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain Podcast, I sit down with Juan Meisel, CEO of Grip, to discuss how AI and advanced logistics are transforming perishable fulfilment. Juan shares how his experience scaling ButcherBox revealed the inefficiencies in traditional cold chain logistics and how Grip is solving these challenges through real-time predictive analytics, dynamic packaging solutions, and smart carrier selection.
Key takeaways from this episode:
✅ How AI improves shipping efficiency and sustainability in the cold chain
✅ The impact of climate events on logistics and how technology mitigates risks
