ICY WORLDS SCOOP - Yakutia, a land known for its tough climate and isolation, is gearing up to flood the Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation (AZRF) with even more foodie goodness!

Saydam Stepanov, the General Director of the Arctic Trade and Logistics Company (ATLC), has spilled the beans to TASS that by 2025, the volume of products being shipped to these far-flung areas is about to skyrocket by a whopping 15%! And it's not just a dash of salt or a pinch of pepper we're talking about. We're talking about an avalanche of goodies that'll make even the fussiest of Arctic explorers grin from ear to ear.

The ATLC, a company that's been handling the supply of food to Yakutia's back-of-beyond settlements like a boss, racked up some impressive numbers in 2024. Snowy winter saw an incredible 5,000 tons of food being transported, half of it being the staple of the miller's trade - flour. The warmer months saw a more temperate 2,700 tons, including 1,455 tons of flour and 572 tons of veggies. All in all, 146 flights were made, delivering 441.9 tons of grub.

Looking ahead to 2025, the ATLC has even bigger appetites. It wants to ship a total of 8,160 tons of grub! A staggering 5,230 tons will be moving along those snowy roads, 2,480 tons during the boating season, and a cheeky 450 tons will be flown in.

But when it comes to transporting food to the Arctic, it ain't always a piece of cake. Maintaining the freshness of the food during transit can be a mile-long Elsa's ice Palace, especially in the bite-the-polar-bear-hards of winter. That's where the ATLC pulls out some of its fancy pants tricks! At Magan Airport, goods are loaded up in chilly carts and kept toasty with furry blankets while in the air. And they didn't shy away from putting their all-terrain vehicles to the test either! Last winter, they sent 4.4 tons of fruits, veggies, and tasty cured meats humming along to the village of Olenek, slashing delivery costs in the process.

The ATLC is also a big fan of snowmobiles for getting to those hard-to-reach villages. In the most recent winter, they sent 5.8 tons of food to the remote settlements of Khaiyr, Tuimat, and Yukagir; a delivery made possible with the help of chilly containers and thermal quilts. Thanks to these efforts, even the harshest conditions can't keep Arctic residents from enjoying their favorite grub.

Eat Up! Whether you're a capitalism connoisseur or just fancy yourself a gourmand, this fresh take on Yakutia's upcoming food surge is just for you!
