235 loads originating in Badajoz province, and the only profile in Spain where Poland is the clear top destination.
Average transit is a historical door-to-door mean, waiting time included. It is not a committed delivery lead time. How we measure transit times, zone by zone
Badajoz exports industrial tomato, Iberian pork, irrigated fruit and processed agri-food from the Vegas del Guadiana and Tierra de Barros. Pure campaign freight: tomato concentrates a summer volume that does not exist the rest of the year.
Poland takes 87 loads against Romania's 42. It is the only case in Spain where Poland leads, and it follows the demand for tomato concentrate and processed product in central and eastern Europe.
Measured average transit is 7.6 days. Extremadura sits far from the European axis and the initial drag weighs: that is geography, not a service problem.
How is the tomato campaign planned?
Well in advance, because the peak concentrates in a few weeks a volume that multiplies the rest of the year, and equipment is finite. Send us estimated dates and volume as soon as you have them: securing capacity in season matters more than price.
Is 7.6 days not a lot?
It is what Extremadura gives, and it is a historical door-to-door average including waiting, not a committed lead time. The distance to the European corridor is real: from Catalonia it is two days shorter, by pure geography.
