Abstract:Conventional food supply chains are centralized in nature and possess challenges pertaining to a single point of failure, product irregularities, quality compromises, and loss of data. Numerous cases of food fraud, contamination, and adulteration are daily reported from multiple parts of India, suggesting the absolute need for an upgraded decentralized supply chain model. A country such as India, where its biggest strength is its demographic dividend, cannot afford to malnutrition a large population of its chi… Show more
“…As technology continues to improve, new and more accurate methods for detecting adulteration will likely be developed, ensuring the safety and quality of dairy products for consumers. Industry 4.0-based techniques, such as decentralised traceability based on IoT and blockchain, are also potential solutions to stop adulteration at very early stages and trace the source of adulteration (Khanna et al 2022).…”

“…The production and consumption of milk-related value-added products (VAP) in India have increased significantly recently (Imarc Group 2022). Despite having the largest dairy animal population and a variety of government programmes, India produces less milk per animal than countries like the United States and the United Kingdom (Khanna et al 2022). The lack of technological interventions, nonscientific methods, ineffective cattle breeding, poor management techniques and many other factors have all contributed to the slow growth of the Indian dairy industry.…”

“…Traceability has gained considerable attention in many industries, including the food sector. The reports suggest thousands of people worldwide have become infected after consuming adulterated and contaminated food items over the last few years (Khanna et al 2022). Dairy products are one such category of food that has seen significant adulteration and contamination.…”
The rise in milk adulteration and contamination, fraud incidents and improper handling necessitates effective traceability systems in the Indian dairy industry. Thus, this review investigates current trends, associated challenges, traceability and its fundamental applications to address food safety and quality issues. The paper covers the evolution of milk adulteration and contamination detection techniques from conventional to emerging. Such information and analytical technologies can improve transparency and safety in the dairy industry by implementing effective traceability systems. This review will explore the challenges and future opportunities associated with the current situation in the Indian dairy industry.

“…Dairy and pharmaceutical supply chain are more prominent due to their immediate impact on end customers' health. Thereby, case studies on dairy supply chains (Khanna et al, 2022;Casino et al, 2021;Varavallo et al, 2022) and pharmaceutical supply chains (Abdallah and Nizamuddin, 2023;Liu et al, 2023;Mani et al, 2022;Haji et al, 2021) has been on the rise in recent literature. Montecchi et al (2021) and Shoaib et al (2023) in their bibliometric analysis highlight major areas of future research related to supply chain transparency.…”
PurposeThis study has two major objectives. First, comprehensively review the literature on transparency in supply chain management. Second, based on a critical analysis of literature, identify the attributes and sub-attributes of supply chain transparency and develop a numerical measure to quantify transparency in supply chains.Design/methodology/approachA systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted using the PRISMA approach. Utilizing SCOPUS database past eighteen-year papers search resulted in 249 papers to understand major developments in the domain of supply chain transparency. Subsequently, graph theoretic approach is applied to quantify transparency in supply chain and the proposed index is evaluated for case supply chains from pharma and dairy sectors.FindingsIt can be concluded from SLR that supply chain transparency research has evolved from merely tracking and tracing of the product towards sustainable development of the whole value chain. The research identifies four major attributes and their sub-attributes that influence transparency in supply chains, which are used to develop transparency index. The proposed index for two sectors helps to understand areas that need immediate attention to improve transparency in the case supply chains.Originality/valueThis paper attempts to understand the development of transparency research in supply chain using the PRISMA approach for SLR. In addition, development of mathematical model to quantify supply chain transparency is a novel attempt that would help benchmark best practices in the industry. Further, transparency index would help to understand specific areas that need attention to improve transparency in supply chains.
