Overview and Application of Advanced Traceability and Monitoring Systems for the Perishable Food Retail Industry = Overview and Application of Advanced Traceability and Monitoring Systems for the Perishable Food Retail Industry

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Concerns surrounding the safety, freshness, quality, and wastage of perishable foods are growing, even though such foods are important to success in the food retail industry. Given the high sensitivity of these foods to temperature and the various food scandals that have surfaced recently, it has become imperative to manage perishable foods more efficiently. Prior studies have proposed advanced traceability and monitoring systems such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Time Temperature Integrator (TTI) as solutions to reduce such concerns. They have not, however, provided a comprehensive review and application of these technologies simultaneously. Because RFID and TTI can bring different advantages to the food retail industry, they should be used with different product categories to maximize the benefits from them. This study provides a better understanding of the potential advantages and applications of advanced perishable-food monitoring systems in the supply chain, based on a comprehensively review of prior studies and an interview with a food retail store in South Korea. Further, it provides valuable practical guidance for the implementation of such systems in the food retail sector.
