The Importance of Using Refrigerated Containers in Quail Meat Export

Due to its delicate texture and temperature sensitivity, quail meat requires special preservation conditions. The use of refrigerated containers guarantees that the product is maintained at an appropriate temperature from origin to destination, preventing spoilage and quality degradation. According to international standards, the optimal temperature for storing quail meat is below -18°C in a cold store with 90% humidity. Adherence to these conditions allows for storage for up to 360 days while preserving quality.

Stages of Exporting Quail Meat Using Refrigerated Containers

1. Processing and Packaging:
· After slaughter, quail meat must be thoroughly washed and disinfected.
· Packaging must comply with the standards of the destination country. Vacuum packaging or Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) is typically used to preserve freshness.
2. Freezing and Storage:
· Quail meat must be frozen immediately after processing in a sub-zero cold store.
· The cold store temperature must remain constant to prevent the formation of ice crystals, which damage the product’s texture.
3. Loading into Refrigerated Containers:
· Refrigerated containers must be pre-cooled to -18°C before loading.
· Loading must be performed in a manner that preserves air circulation around the packages and ensures a uniform temperature.
4. Transfer and Transportation:
· During transportation, the container temperature must be continuously monitored to prevent fluctuations.
· The use of temperature and humidity tracking systems is recommended to ensure optimal conditions.
5. Obtaining Necessary Permits:
· Technical permit from the Ministry of Agriculture-Jahad and the Veterinary Organization.
· Currency approval permit from the Ministry of Agriculture-Jahad.
· Commodity ID for customs clearance.

Target Markets and Export Challenges

· Target Markets: The Persian Gulf region, Central Asia, the European Union, and China are among the main markets for Iranian quail meat. It is noteworthy that exports to China are often conducted indirectly through third-party ports such as Hong Kong.
· Challenges:
· Compliance with the health and quality protocols of destination countries.
· Addressing avian diseases, such as bird flu, which may lead to export restrictions.
