Industry-Specific Export Solutions from Cook Islands
Tourism is a big part of the Cook Islands' economy. When sending products like brochures, souvenirs, or crafts, they need to be packed carefully to protect them from damage. Packages should be secure, waterproof, and labeled clearly so they can reach their destination perfectly.
Fish and seafood are important exports. These need to stay fresh during shipping. To do this, they are packed in cold boxes with ice or dry ice to keep them at the right temperature. This makes sure they are still good to eat when they arrive.
Fruits like pawpaws and bananas are grown on the islands. They are picked at just the right time so they are not too ripe for the journey. They are packed carefully in layers, often in boxes with special holes, so they stay safe and fresh.
