Ensuring that your products always arrive in ideal condition for consumption is a tough challenge for your cold chain. Overcoming this challenge consistently can improve cold chain reputations to establish your operation as a reliable and efficient solution that customers can turn to. However, one-third of the world’s food is lost to spoilage every year due to insufficient temperature tracking techniques in cold chains. This costs the global supply chain more than $35 billion a year.
Insufficient temperature tracking techniques in supply chains stem from businesses lacking proper technology. Without proper technology, supply chains suffer from ruined electronics and slower operations. This happens because supply chains lack the technologies and features needed to deliver superior performance. When your business isn’t delivering quality performance, that can lead to diminished visibility on your products, which causes food spoilage in cold chains.
