I am selling cheesecakes. I am charging a flat rate shipping of $10, priority mail…. I will eat the balance. 48 states. I am using your 4 gel packs, from your recommended vendor; newspaper wrap, siran wrap and bubble wrap. I also tape all vent areas of box. What do you think?
The margins aren’t always great with retailers or selling products wholesale. I had a deal with Whole Foods Market and the numbers let me know it would be profitable for WFM, but not me.
Just came cross your video. Very informative.!!!!
Hi, I own a business where we ship out Jamaican beef patties (frozen) I use insulated shipping liners and ice packs. Some customers receive their package fine and some states the patties are not cold. Most customers receive their patties in 2 days so I am not sure what I am doing wrong. What ice pack do you recommend that can last 48 to 72 hours
Any tips for cheesecake or key lime pie style. They don't have to start frozen all the way

I looked into this but styrofoam + gel packs + dry ice + fast shipping cost destroy most profit margins. Now if you are set on going this route – I have found following is best option: 1) Use free priority mail boxes from USPS 2) get styrofoam that fits inside that priority box 3) add frozen gel packs (some frozen gel packs take 5 weeks to properly freeze so read instructions) 4) add little dry ice on top (dry ice freezes from top down to bottom) 5) Don't use 1 day express as it will destroy most profit margins but instead go with 2-3 day priority mail. The dry ice will keep everything frozen at temp of -109 F for 24 hours (as long as using insulated box – styrofoam). After 24 hours thawing will start to some extent and that is where frozen gel packs come in as they will keep package cool for atleast another 48 hours. This should cover your package for max 3 days with priority mail. The goal is to keep package temp at or below 40 degrees F (bacteria starts growing at 40 degrees F). To test your method simply put thermometer inside box your testing and send it (with test product inside) to relative across country and make sure when they open package the temp is below 40 degrees. Your welcome.

Hi! I wanted to sell frozen food and ship it to my customers, but I don’t know which shipping service provides fast overnight or next day shipping that is CHEAP or INEXPENSIVE (so my frozen food won’t melt). Please help! I’m wanting to start a small business and need to save some money on shipping to begin with! I’ve been searching for videos on this, but haven’t found the right one. Again, please HELP ME! Thanks!
Just finding your channel now- Just curious why there isn’t any frozen baby food lines in grocery stores? Would this be a more challenging frozen food opportunity since there isn’t currently dedicated freezer space in this sector? Any brief thoughts are welcome!
Thank you so much! I have been thinking about open frozen food for so long.
