Cominport, part of TAKARA, a global leader in the manufacturing and distribution of Asian products, specializes in the import of premium Japanese food products. Based in Málaga, Cominport (formerly known as Amaran) has over 24 years of experience in the sector. The company currently offers around 1,200 product lines, serving five Andalusian provinces, with plans for regional expansion.
Its Málaga facilities, spanning 5,000 m², serve as the central hub for handling refrigerated, frozen, and ultra-frozen products. Cominport’s commitment to quality has established it as a trusted and exclusive supplier for the hospitality industry.
For Cominport, maintaining the cold chain and complying with strict internal and external quality standards is a daily challenge. Before implementing the Borea System, they managed these processes with rudimentary tools, which proved insufficient for their current needs.
The risk of product loss due to refrigeration failures or power outages was a constant concern. Moreover, they required a system that allowed them to act in real-time in the event of any incident, ensuring cold chain traceability and the quality of their products.
With a wide range of products requiring specific conditions —from ultra-freezers at -60 °C for tuna to refrigeration chambers for other foods— Cominport needed an innovative solution that offered control, efficiency, and peace of mind.
To address these challenges, Cominport turned to the Borea System by Torsa. This solution combines advanced technology with real-time monitoring to oversee and ensure optimal temperature and humidity conditions in their refrigeration and freezing units.
The installation included strategically placed sensors in each chamber and freezer, connected to a central unit that provides continuous data. This enables Cominport to immediately detect deviations and take corrective actions remotely, minimizing operational impact and ensuring their products maintain the quality their customers expect.
The implementation of the Borea System has not only improved facility monitoring but has also delivered tangible benefits in terms of cost savings and operational efficiency:
“Thanks to Torsa’s Borea System, we are confident that we meet the most demanding regulations, and we have seen significant cost savings and efficiency improvements.”
The collaboration between Torsa and Cominport demonstrates how innovation can transform the management of critical processes in demanding sectors such as the food industry. The Borea System not only ensures regulatory compliance and traceability, but also enables Cominport to operate with unparalleled efficiency, strengthening its position as a leader in the import of Asian food products and achieving cost savings.
