Grocery Industry
Essentially, the food industry involves the commercial movement of food from field to fork. The modern food industry is the result of technological and cultural changes that have occurred over the last 150 years.
As early as 1976, the grocery industry has looked towards EDI as a possible solution to the ever-growing amount of paperwork required to do routine business. Today, EDI use in the grocery industry is very prevalent and also emerging technologies like RFID and AS2 are beginning to make their appearance.
