Cold storage logistics isn’t just about keeping things cool – it’s about precision, compliance, and traceability. When you’re managing perishable goods like food, pharmaceuticals, or temperature-sensitive consumer products, your warehouse operations have to be fast, accurate, and fully auditable.

At MAVES, we’ve spent over 50 years helping 3PLs succeed, and we know that cold storage requires a system built for complexity. That’s why ViewPoint Logistics™ (VPL) offers a powerful set of tools purpose-built for temperature-controlled warehousing and cold chain operations.

Built for the Demands of Cold Chain Logistics

Cold storage facilities need more than basic inventory management. You need a system that can track and document environmental conditions, handle product-specific rules, and meet stringent regulatory requirements. Here’s how VPL delivers:

1. Real-Time Temperature & Condition Monitoring

Track product-level temperatures and environmental data across multiple zones. Ensure compliance with food safety and pharmaceutical standards like HACCP, CFIA, and FDA.

2. Lot, Batch, and Expiry Tracking

Maintain full traceability of perishable goods with detailed lot and expiry date records. VPL supports FIFO/FEFO rules and automated alerts to avoid costly spoilage or recalls.

3. Holds & Release Logic

Automate inventory status changes for quality control, regulatory inspections, or customer-specific requirements. Set release conditions based on time, temp, or inspection outcome.

4. Flexible Storage Billing

Charge by cubic footage, weight, pallet, or time in storage. VPL’s billing engine gives you full control to configure customer-specific pricing with accuracy and transparency.

Visibility from Freezer to Fork

With VPL, you’re not just storing product – you’re managing a live ecosystem. Our HighViews™ operational dashboards give your team access to:

  • Inventory aging reports
