refrigerated cargo

Cold transport goods

Refrigerated cargo is goods transported under temperature-controlled conditions to prevent spoilage—typically perishable items like meat, seafood, produce, pharmaceuticals, or flowers.

The term appears in shipping and logistics contexts: The vessel was equipped to handle refrigerated cargo.

Such cargo travels in specialized containers called reefers.
