FARMER MEETS FOODIE
Farmer Meets Foodie (FMF) is a virtual farmers market with direct delivery from the producer to the consumer. FMF has had the privilege of trialling several TomKat Global Solutions KoolPaks for our farm and trawler to table delivery service since October 2020. We have used the KoolPak for delivery of a variety of chilled and frozen products including frozen seafood and fresh blueberries.
The advantages of using the KoolPaks have included:
- Being able to leave a delivery to keep cool if customer is not home
- Traceability to recover boxes and to track deliveries
- Reusability, FMF has reused boxes weekly, they are easy to clean and are still in use after several months of weekly deliveries
- Easy to stack and fit amongst other boxes (compared to a polystyrene alterative) in transit
- Reusable, recyclable, and locally manufactured fit into our ethos of reducing carbon emissions and using reusable and recycled packaging wherever possible
- Suitable for one off delivery runs where it’s not feasible to run a full chiller or freezer
We have been getting extensive reusability out of the TomKat KoolPak. We have been using the boxes to transport fresh and frozen produce over the last 12 months across North Queensland. The most used box has been used 28 times and is still in good working order. We work with many niche producers and makers who have also expressed interest in using the TomKat Global Solutions KoolPaks for their own deliveries.
