We secure the flow of food to Gotland all year round

Gotland’s geographical location creates unique conditions. Transporting food to an island requires more coordination, more planning, and the right capacity to secure flows over time. Demand can also vary – both seasonally and depending on the global situation. That’s why it is crucial to have a partner that is already on site and has the capacity to scale up when needed.

For Tempcon, its presence on Gotland and transports to the island are no coincidence, but a long-term commitment. The group is established on the island and has built a stable structure for daily deliveries of chilled, frozen, and temperature-controlled goods.

Daily flows with the right capacity

Today, transports run to Gotland every day, primarily from Eskilstuna and Enköping. To create flexibility and consolidate volumes, one of Tempcon’s terminals in Stockholm is also used, where goods can be received, reloaded, and consolidated onto trucks heading to the island.

This makes it possible to handle both larger and smaller flows efficiently without compromising quality or delivery precision. Behind every departure is careful planning and secured ferry capacity, which is essential when logistics depend on maritime transport.

Local presence that makes a difference

On Gotland, Tempcon operates a cross-docking terminal and has its own staff on site. Together with a well-established local haulage company, this creates a presence that is noticeable in everyday life for island residents and visitors.

“We transport food with the same high standards for quality and safety as in the rest of the country,” says Mikael Larsson, CEO of Cold Star Logistics, which is part of the Tempcon Group.

Tempcon combines local knowledge with the strength of its national network. For customers, this means short decision paths, high delivery precision, and an unbroken cold chain all the way from sender to recipient.

“Through stable and reliable flows, we ensure that stores, businesses, and consumers on Gotland can trust that the goods are where they should be, when they should be,” says Mikael Larsson.
