The food supply chain is a whole composed of economic interests from the primary producers to the consumers of food (including its front-end products suppliers and back-end of the government as the regulator).

The food supply chain is a typical functional product supply chain, the design of the supply chain mainly focuses on the minimization of the integrated cost of each link, to promote the strategy, forecast stocking type production, through the procurement, production, distribution of smooth operation to reduce the cost. Emphasizing economies of scale, with material efficiency indicators such as capacity utilization and inventory turnover.

Strategy

Vigorously promote the application of cold chain technology in the food supply chain, improve and optimize the operation and management system of the cold chain, and continuously improve the proportion of cold chain transportation and distribution in the logistics and transportation of the food supply chain. In particular, it is necessary to increase the placement and use of refrigerated and frozen transportation means and vehicles in the transportation and distribution links of the food supply chain system.

At the same time, accelerate the construction of port refrigeration equipment, special refrigeration and freezing warehouses and other warehousing facilities, so as to provide a material basis for the cold storage of the food supply chain.

Through the establishment of food freezing and refrigeration supply chain, the perishable, fresh food from the origin of acquisition, processing, storage, transportation, sales, until the consumption of each link are placed in the appropriate low-temperature environment, in order to ensure the quality of food, to reduce food loss, to prevent the deterioration of food and pollution.
