The Ministry of Agriculture through the Guyana Marketing

Corporation continues to diversify the non-traditional agriculture

sector. As such, recognizing the importance of proper post harvest

handling and storage of produce; hence the Ministry has

introduced the “Refrigerated Trucking Service.”

The Refrigerated Trucking Service was developed to provide

farmers and exporters with the required transport for their

produce from one location to another.

The service is equipped with Six Refrigerated Trucks, which

includes;

� Three (3) two tonne

� Two (2) six tonne

� One (1) four tonne

In an effort to provide the service to as many stakeholders as

possible at the most competitive prices, GMC has lowered it rates

for usage of the Refrigerated Trucks as compared to the

commercial rates of Non – Refrigerated Trucks. GMC’s

Refrigerated Trucking Service Targets Farmers and Exporter in

Region, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10 and is operated from Guyana

Marketing Corporation Head Office.

Importance of Transporting Fresh Produce in a Refrigerated

Truck

When produce is harvested from the parent plant it rapidly

undergoes changes such as; “biochemical changes” that will

speed up the ripening and deterioration rate and which interns

reduces the shelf life. Hence, it is important to keep the produce

cool as possible so as to as to maintain the quality, especially

when been transported. One of the recommended ways to

maintain the quality is the use of Refrigerated Trucks, which

helps in:

� Reduction of Water loss,

� Reducing wilting and ripening of produce,

� Reducing the growth of Micro Organisms,

� Protects your Produce for Rain, Sun and Dust
