Operations
At Michael Lewis Company, operational excellence is the foundation of our service. From temperature-controlled storage to precise receiving procedures, every step of our operation is designed to ensure product integrity, compliance, and efficiency. Our facilities in Chicago and Phoenix are equipped with advanced systems and dedicated teams that uphold the highest industry standards for handling, staging, and distribution.
FROZEN & REFRIGERATED
MLCo procedures ensure that the integrity of frozen and refrigerated items are consistent with manufacturer specifications and meet or exceed our customers’ expectations. Appropriate HACCP procedures are followed as they apply to MLCo products.
MLCo Receiving
MLCo offers exceptional supply chain integrity through its state of the art receiving facilities. Perishable goods are safeguarded the moment they arrive. All refrigerated and frozen items are handled exclusively on a temperature-controlled dock. This seamless cold chain transition ensures that product quality is never compromised. Following stringent food safety and quality inspections, items are immediately and efficiently moved into their respective climate-controlled storage zones.
MLCo Shipping
MLCo’s dual-temperature trailers provide a versatile and efficient solution for your logistical needs, allowing both refrigerated and frozen goods to be transported simultaneously on a single truck. Our trailers use an insulated barrier to maintain strict separation, ensuring each zone holds its ideal temperature without compromise. Every trailer is pre-cleaned, pre-chilled, and inspected before loading to guarantee the highest standards of safety and quality for your products. Throughout the entire delivery process, trailer temperatures are continuously tracked and monitored, providing peace of mind from shipping to receiving.
