Abstract

The food supply chain consists of some main parts, those are agricultural producer, food processor, wholesale and retail business, logistics distribution enterprise and the food supply chain involves some networks which are food processing, food transportation, food distribution and food sales. Based on the perspective of supply chain, proceeding from the five levels of production link, processing link, transportation link, storage link, and information link, after the investigation and analysis of problems in every part of food safety, this article proposes to improve the food safety laws and regulations system, to perfect the standard system of food supply chain, to strengthen the comprehensive management of food supply chain, to establish the credit system of food supply enterprise, found countermeasures such as food supply chain information monitoring, information notification, publishing network system, to promote mutual cooperation among various members of the food supply chain, and to construct the food safety supply chain which is organically connected and can be traced to its source.
