1. Cold chain logistics theory

1. Development strategy of cold chain logistics Author: Mi Haiyan

Abstract: Cold chain transportation is the first step of cold chain logistics The key link is that the multi-temperature configuration of cold chain logistics can improve the efficiency of cold chain logistics operations and reduce corporate operating costs. The low-temperature characteristics of cold chain logistics mean that if logistics companies establish a separate cold chain logistics center, not only the investment cost High and the payback period is long. Because cold chain foods have the same characteristics and different foods have different temperature ranges, the cold chain logistics industry of the entire society should be united to jointly establish cold chain logistics distribution centers to realize the diversification of the cold chain logistics industry. Warm combination and safe delivery.

3. HACCP makes cold chain logistics safer Author: Author: Wang Xianfeng

Abstract: HACCP is currently the most widely used management system in the world to solve food safety problems. HACCP can overcome many limitations of traditional food safety management methods, identify various foreseeable hazards, prevent or handle them early, avoid looking for the cause of the accident after the accident occurs, and minimize food risks. As a preventive safety control measure, HACCP's application and implementation in cold chain logistics can effectively improve cold chain logistics and food safety.

2. Current status of cold chain logistics

1. The cost of cold chain logistics in my country is rising Author: Wang Duo Seek

Abstract: After more than 20 years of development, my country's cold chain logistics has made great progress. "According to estimates by relevant departments, nearly 12 million tons of fruits and 130 million tons of vegetables are damaged every year nationwide. On a per kilogram basis, Calculated in one yuan, the economic loss exceeds hundreds of billions. Due to quality problems, the price of my country’s fruit and vegetable exports is generally lower than the import price. For example, in 2001, the price of imported apples was as high as 586.8 US dollars/ton, which was 255 US dollars/ton higher than the export price; imported citrus prices The price is 210 US dollars/ton higher than the export price; the price of imported grapes is as high as 1,126.3 US dollars/ton, and the price of export grapes is 413 US dollars/ton, which is only 1/3 of the imported grapes.” (Zhuan Logistics Network). It can be seen that my country's logistics costs are relatively high. Only by increasing the infrastructure construction of my country's cold chain logistics and focusing on the core technology of cold chain food temperature and cost reduction can we fundamentally change the problem of my country's high cold chain logistics costs!

6. Cold chain logistics leads the new "fresh" era Author: Xiao Lu

Abstract: It is understood that currently only 10% of meat, 20% of aquatic products and a small amount of milk and soy products in my country circulate through the standardized cold chain system, which is far lower than that in developed countries. With the increasing status of buyers in the commodity circulation market, consumers have more and more choices, and the circulation chain is getting longer and longer. In modern life, food consumption is increasingly trending towards series, convenience, safety, leisure and good for physical and mental health. The dietary changes of modern people mainly have the following five trends: rapidity, diversification, leisure, green and health care. Due to the perishability, freshness and shelf life of food, people have higher and higher requirements for food, and food preservation has become a new hot spot in cold chain logistics.
