We apply Combined Controlled Atmosphere Technology (CCAT) using all controlled atmosphere technology at our disposal. Cold room management and cold supply chain is achieved with respect for maintaining product integrity and product quality for longer periods.
- Supply Chain: Our supply chain management process has been designed to integrate with camp management to ensure that demand and supply requirements are integrated and balanced between camps.

- Fuel Supply: We are able to provide our camps with fuel supplies all over the region as well as managing the entire fuel supply and fuel stations within the camp sites. We constantly check the quality of the fuel we supply.
- Camp Survey: AES is organized in its approach to finding locations for camps and preparation of the required camp services. We recommend to have our initial survey taken so more information can be collected on the specific area. We shall provide the full camp design including all plumbing and electrical needs based on the outcome of our survey.
- Procurement: Our procurement teams ensure that the best quality materials are obtained at optimum costs and meet local and international standards. AES owns and operates a fleet of trucks to transport dry goods, cleaning materials and frozen food.
- Flying Camps: We are specialized in what is considered the more complicated logistical aspect of the camp management system which is moving the camps to different locations within the same project.
Supply Chain Management
Logistics and supply services are also provided by camp catering providers. This means they take care of purchasing, delivery, storage and disposal of food items as part of their service package. Fresh produce and dry goods are sourced and purchased from local suppliers if possible. If they cannot find local suppliers, they purchase from wholesale partners and arrange for the delivery by trucks, air or boats. Remote kitchen staff manage inventory and ensure ingredients are stocked regularly. They are also responsible for the proper storage and handling of food (such as refrigeration and freezing) and ensure they maintain food quality at the required standard.
