Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 工業工程與管理學系 === 98 === To ensure the safety of food distribution and to protect consumers from accidentally contaminated food, the government tries to help the food industry build the system of food traceability system. The food traceability system provides the information of traceability of food so that consumers are comfortable with food safety. In addition, the system also increases the value of purchased food and enhances the food safety. The technology of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an application on the food distribution system. The RFID implementation on the food distribution traceability system would open up another new business sector and help some related firms develop RFID related products or services. This research is to analyze the profits and costs incurred in implementation of a food distribution traceability system, and to propose a potential business model to implement the idea of the system of food distribution.
