Case Study: Swissradies delivers fresh radishes efficiently and sustainably with IFCO reusable packaging containers

Swissradies delivers 600–800 tons of radishes annually with IFCO reusable packaging

The customer, Swissradies, a Swiss radish grower, faced increasing hygiene requirements and a need for a more efficient, sustainable packaging solution beyond wooden crates and rigid G-containers. They partnered with vendor IFCO Systems to implement their reusable packaging containers (RPCs).

IFCO provided a pooling system of RPCs that are cleaned, tracked digitally, and delivered reliably. This solution gave Swissradies access to clean containers, even during peak harvest, and removed the operational burden of managing transportation, washing, and storage. The long-term partnership has been a fundamental part of Swissradies' infrastructure for 25 years, allowing them to efficiently transport hundreds of tons of radishes annually.
