Food supply chain is complex collective of diverse businesses that supply the food consumed by a population. Due to the increase in demand and high competition, producers, manufacturers, distributors are under pressure to deliver their products to the market quickly and at the same time, maintaining the quality of the product to reach safely to the expected destination.

Three major problems faced by the supply chain industries are:

• Lack of traceability: The ability to track the food throughout the whole supply has become an increasing demand for the customers or clients. Lack of traceability can create blindspots in your chain which may become a potential risk at a later stage. The problem can also escalate to certain legal issues.
• Inability to maintain the quality of products: The maintenance of the quality of products depends on factors like storage and intricacies in transportation but the most important factor in this environment is to maintain temperature for these products so that we can retain the highest quality.
• Inadequate communication between parties: Inefficient communication and fragmented information can have a major impact on the food supply chain. This is mainly due to the reason that the people involved has little to no knowledge on another’s actions. Poor communication can cause inefficiency, waste and can lead to lack of trust among suppliers and other consumers.
