PeriShip Offers Tips for Shipping Perishable Products During Hurricane Season
BRANFORD, Conn., May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- With the Atlantic hurricane season beginning June 1, PeriShip reminds small business owners, particularly those shipping perishable and time-sensitive items, to take action now to safeguard their products and customers from costly weather-related shipping delays.

Severe storms can immediately disrupt supply chains, causing road closures, power outages, and shipping gridlock that put fresh, frozen, time-sensitive, and temperature-sensitive foods at immediate risk. The stakes are high for small food producers, caterers, specialty grocers, and online food sellers: a single missed delivery can mean spoiled inventory, lost revenue, and damaged customer trust.
"Preparedness is critical," said Adam Stedham, CEO at PeriShip. "We work with small food businesses to help ensure they can manage their perishable shipments and brand effectively, especially in the face of major weather events."
PeriShip offers tailored support for small businesses, including:
- Daily Weather Forecasting & Alerts: With an in-house team of meteorologists, PeriShip provides custom forecasts, high-temperature risk maps, and closed ZIP code reports so you can make informed shipping decisions.
- Rerouting & Contingency Planning: Don't risk relying on one shipping route. PeriShip helps small businesses find alternate options and adapt quickly when storms strike.
- Real-Time Shipment Monitoring: PeriShip's dashboard lets you track every shipment and provides hands-on support to keep deliveries moving.
- Cold Chain Solutions: From insulated packaging advice to proactive interventions, PeriShip understands what it takes to keep food safe during delays, even when your best option is to avoid shipping for periods of time.
- Customer Communication Support: Clear communication is key during disruptions. PeriShip helps you alert your customers quickly and professionally when changes are needed.
"For small food businesses, every shipment matters," added Stedham. "That's why we combine smart forecasting, live tracking, and industry-specific logistics expertise to minimize risk and maximize success—even during hurricane season."
With over 20 years of experience in perishable logistics, PeriShip is a trusted partner for food producers and sellers looking to protect their products, reputations, and bottom lines.
