Is there any difference between the food supply chain collaboration and other supply chain collaboration?
The main key features of Food Supply Chain Collaboration hold in the respect for the different temperatures and, in particular, in the respect for the cold chain (fresh and frozen products).
Dear Pramit,
I believe that the key is in the synchronization of that collaboration, for the short-lived character of the products.
Regards,
food supply chains have special characteristics regarding the required warehousing, transportation, and the integration between decisions on production and distribution.
The main key features of supply chain collaboration are warehousing, cold-storage temperature measurement, production and transportation.
Some interesting elements of food supply chains are discussed in this article: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1745-493X.2008.00043.x
