This article attempts to make an empirical analysis on the food quality and safety information sharing degree between retailers and partners of supply chain and its influencing factors. In the paper, the degree of EDI, Bar Code and POS technologies used by retailers represent the degree of food information sharing. The results showed that the general situation of food quality and safety information sharing among partners in supply chain is more optimistic; factors of the publicity frequency, demand scale and sharing willingness of food information influence significantly on the degree of information sharing between retailers and other partners. Different factors affect the ways of information transfer. Finally, in order to ensure retailers offer safety food to consumers, government should take proper measures to ensure food information transfer effectively in supply chain.

On the discussion of food safety, the majority of China's scholars believe that the food manufacturer should responsible for its inferior products. The food manufacturer should be punished by government more than that of wholesaler and retailer. But the punishment produces less effect on the food manufacturer’s adverse selection. This paper establishes a three-sector model, and analyzes empirically the distribution of benefits among food manufacturer, wholesaler and retailer. The research result shows that the unreasonable distribution of benefits resulting in manufacturer’s adverse selection on food safety in supply chain. Therefore, in order to improve the governance of food quality and safety, government should concern about the distribution of benefits among food manufacturer, wholesaler and retailer in supply chain. Based on the above analysis, this paper puts forward some corresponding recommendations.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the risk points that may lead to food safety in the operation and development of catering O2O supply chain. Based on the operational mode of catering O2O supply chain, the system risk factors were identified by theoretical and literature analysis. Also, the expert Delphi method was used to put forward a comparatively perfect food quality and safety risk assessment system in catering O2O industry, and an evaluation model was constructed based on the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method of analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to provide a reference for the development of food safety management of the catering O2O industry.

Food safety has gained global attention due to rising issues of food-borne illnesses, adulteration, and increased consumer awareness about food safety worldwide. It is a challenge for the governments and the food industry itself to maintain food safety throughout the food and supply chain. There are several systems and processes adopted by various countries to ensure food safety, and the food safety audits are one of the indispensable tools to achieve the goals of food quality and safety. Rising trends of consuming processed foods, eating out in restaurants and cafes, home deliveries of food from outside worldwide have made the auditing process very essential to ensure that the food products are being manufactured, stored, and sold in compliance with national and international standards. This chapter aims at providing an overview of the food audit processes, scope, importance, challenges, and future trends.

PurposeFood markets are characterized by asymmetric information between suppliers and consumers, which causes inefficiency of market and food safety risks. This paper studies how the food quality and safety information disclosed by the government affects the hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP) certification decision of meat producers. The heterogeneity of the effects across different regions, provinces with different meat output scales and provinces with different intensities of food safety regulation is evaluated.Design/methodology/approachThis paper applies a unique database comprising information from multiple sources. Food quality and safety information disclosure is indicated by the number of failure records of food sampling inspections by the government in 2015–2018. Fixed-effect model is used in the analyses.FindingsThe results demonstrate that food quality and safety information disclosure has a significant effect on the HACCP certification adoption by meat producers. The effect is heterogeneous across geographic regions, i.e. this effect is larger in the east and the middle of China than that in the west and the northeast. The heterogeneity across regions may be caused by the variance in meat output scales and fiscal expenditures on food safety among provinces.Originality/valueThis research is one of the preliminary attempts to understand how producers respond in terms of HACCP certification to the amount of food quality and safety information disclosed by the government, based on the case of meat industry in China.
