Refrigerated ship used to get Taranaki beef to the USA, due to container shortage | Stuff.co.nz

Makes sense to work in together.

Expensive way to ship. Don't think much in the way of containers out of NP, but otherwise would have to go to Welly, AKL, Napier or Tauranga.

More cost, but balanced off cost of coldstorage (if any available), finance, cashflow, not servicing customers, not meeting contracts, changing market conditions etc.
