“…It can clearly be seen that relationship management is an important activity within food logistics, because it was studied in 54 of 104 papers.

How to feed the world is a vital question and likewise the importance of food logistics. This paper presents a literature review of the food aspects in logistics research. A total of 159 published papers were identified from 9 logistics and supply chain management journals, whereof 104 focused on food logistics. The papers were categorised into the type of logistics activities studied from the perspective of different food supply chain actors and actor constellations. The papers were also grouped according to which food product characteristics they had highlighted as impacting logistics activities. It was noticed that food products have unique characteristics and that food supply chain actors work in a specific context. Thus, this paper puts forward a comprehensive definition of food logistics: Food logistics analyses logistics activities within a food supply chain context by problematising food product characteristics and by examining the constellation of food supply chain actors.

“…The literature identified the importance of developing proactive strategies to reduce costs and identify issues within the product development process. Product security within areas such as the food industry has not been a high priority due to the concern of reducing costs to address price demands from customers (Voss et al 2009). The food industry continues to be under pressure to improve food safety, implement efficient risk management and manage quality from farm to fork (Wang, Li, and Shi 2012).…”

One of the biggest challenges in the manufacturing sector is managing product recalls. To date, few studies have explored the role of information systems in the recall process. This study presents the six Ts of global recall effectiveness as a useful framework for assessing the role of information technology (IT) in the recall process. In this study, we interview mid-level managers with supply chain management experience to capture the richness of this phenomenon. The results offer new insights into the value of IT in the recall process. This paper contributes to the literature by qualitatively assessing the six Ts framework for recall management. We highlight diverse management strategies utilised by supply chain stakeholders during the recall process. In particular, we discuss important themes that emerged from the data analysis. We conclude with a discussion of the research and practical implications.

“…First, food supply chains are an important subset of the broader supply chain environment due to their importance to global and local populations, economic prosperity, and the vulnerablity of food supply chains [14]. Second, food has a direct effect on customers' health, which prompts the need for products to have high levels of quality.…”

This paper puts forward a model for selecting suppliers and evaluating the performance of those already working with a company. A simulation was conducted in a food industry. This sector has high significance in the economy of Brazil. The model enables the phases of selecting and evaluating suppliers to be integrated. This is important so that a company can have partnerships with suppliers who are able to meet their needs. Additionally, a group method is used to enable managers who will be affected by this decision to take part in the selection stage. Finally, the classes resulting from the performance evaluation are shown to support the contractor in choosing the most appropriate relationship with its suppliers. OPSOMMING'n Model vir die seleksie van leweransiers en vir die beoordeling van dié wat alreeds aan die maatskappy verbonde is, word voorgestel. 'n Simulasie van die voedselindustrie in Brasilië is gedoen, omdat hierdie sektor 'n belangrike rol in die Brasiliaanse ekonomie speel. Die model integreer die leweransierseleksie-en beoordeelfases; dit is belangrik sodat 'n maatskappy vennootskappe met leweransiers, wat aan die maatskappy se vereistes voldoen, kan aangaan. Verder word 'n groepmetode gebruik om belanghebbende bestuurders toe te laat om insette tot die besluitneming tydens die leweransierseleksiefase te lewer. Laastens word terugvoer van die leweransierbeoordeelfase gebruik om die maatskappy te steun in die keuse van 'n gepaste verhouding met sy leweransiers.
