Safe & Certified Food Grade Warehousing Solutions

Food products require exceptionally high levels of safety, cleanliness, and regulatory compliance when it comes to storage. Warehouses need to be equipped with specialized spaces to store everything from raw ingredients to packaged consumer goods. This is critical for preserving freshness, preventing contamination, and maintaining adherence to FDA and USDA regulations. Having food-grade warehousing that protects products, meets delivery schedules, and ensures consumer safety is crucial.

This is why so many in the food industry turn to Murphy Logistics. With more than 120 years of experience serving the food and beverage sector among many others, we’re more than equipped to meet the challenges of this demanding industry. Our proven track record of food-grade operations makes us the best choice for warehousing solutions.

Certified and Compliant Food-Grade Facilities

When dealing with food products, assurances matter. Consumers need to have confidence that the products they buy at the store have been properly handled and stored every step of the way on their journey to shelves. This means following stringent SQF, FDA, USDA, and organic certification standards is not optional.

Murphy’s facilities are certified according to SQF and USDA/FDA standards, and we also hold additional organic handler certifications. We maintain rigorous safety and security standards through regular audits, inspections, and mock recalls that exceed legal requirements. We’re always looking for ways to improve our services, and that includes constantly training employees in the latest practices and regulations. With our SQF-certified warehouse capabilities, customers have a partner who helps them keep up with the ever-evolving regulatory landscape as well as the latest food safety guidance.

Specialized Storage Options for Food and Ingredients

We understand that food-grade storage isn’t a “one size fits all” proposal. It calls for an approach tailored specifically for the products or ingredients in question. For example, a customer may need dry food storage for packaged goods or grains to help prevent contamination. Perishable products obviously require refrigerated food storage to ensure they don’t spoil or lose their freshness. Specialty products might need flexible food-grade warehouse configurations to accommodate a variety of unique needs. All of these may need to be stored in the same facility, as well, with spaces being carefully segregated to preserve the integrity of all.

Murphy Logistics offers expansive FDA-compliant warehouse facilities, and we have the expertise to adapt our facilities to meet a wide range of needs. This includes being able to scale our facilities to accommodate seasonal surges as well as regular year-round demand levels.

Value-Added Food-Grade Warehousing Services

Being able to keep a healthy supply chain makes a huge difference in the food and beverage sector, as every moment counts. Murphy offers value-added services including pick-and-pack fulfillment, labeling, kitting, repackaging, and inspection to help our customers keep their products moving. We have the ability to rework or repackage products quickly to help clients meet retail or regulatory requirements.

Because we offer these services on-site, our customers don’t have to deal with multiple providers. This reduces their costs and their handling risks.

Transportation and Distribution Integration

Another advantage Murphy provides our customers in the food and beverage sector is our integrated transportation and distribution capabilities. We offer LTL, truckload, and rail services to help them connect Point A to Point B as smoothly as possible.
