A four-day theoretical and practical training on REFRIGERATED CONTAINER OPERATION and MAINTENANCE was held from April 16-19,2024 at EHPEA training center and also in the field.

27 farm technicians drawn from flower, fruit and vegetable farms as well as logistic service provider companies have attended the training.

Refrigerated containers carry perishable cargo that requires smart and efficient temperature management. Thus, reefer containers require proper operation and maintenance.

It is crucial to equip farm technicians with the necessary knowledge and skill to operate and maintain reefer containers.

The training was delivered by a seasoned guru of REFRIGERATION, Simon Benard, who used to own Geerlofs Refrigeration and IP Handlers among his versatile experience.

He volunteered to deliver the training through PUM.

We will continue to build capacity in Cool Chain management.
