We all know the modern food supply chain poses unique challenges to the transportation industry. The bar has risen when it comes to food safety, consumer demands, and regulatory requirements. Mark-it Express has continued to grow and adapt to the needs of the food supply chain.
Shifting consumer demands places challenges on the transportation industry
Consumers today are more demanding and have more discriminating tastes when it comes to their food products. Consumers increasingly want:
- More organic
- Locally sourced
- Vegetarian and vegan choices
- Fresher ingredients
- Healthier alternatives

To meet these needs, food shippers need an experienced transportation partner like Mark-it Express.
