Code Date Policy
All product listed on our Dot
Expressway is classified as normal inventory. This
means that the product will have acceptable age by industry standards. The industry uses a
“number of days past production” as the standard.
Products don’t really “expire”.
At a certain point some may have to be frozen, but product is typically sold before
freezing is necessary.
The normal days past production
varies by product type. Here is the overview:
Boneless Boxed Beef: will arrive to the customer with no more than 35
days since date past production. Anything in
our system that has more days than this will be managed and sold by our Protein CDR group.
Bone-In Boxed Beef: will arrive to the customer with no more than 28
days since date past production. Anything in
our system that has more days than this will be managed and sold by our Protein CDR group.
Ground Beef: will arrive to the customer with no more than 15
days past production. Anything in our system
that has more days than this will be managed and sold by our Protein CDR group.
