Overview

Survey reveals that AIoT cold chain adoption enhances operational performance in food supply firms, indicating that ISO standards amplify these technological benefits.

Key Points

  • To assess how AIoT-enabled cold chain systems affect operational performance through supply–demand control and examine the moderating role of dual ISO certifications.
  • Surveyed 250 agricultural and marine product enterprises in South Korea from a lean logistics perspective.
  • Utilized partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to test direct and indirect associations among resource reduction awareness, system implementation, supply–demand control, and operational performance.
  • Conducted measurement invariance of composite models (MICOM) and multi-group analysis to compare firms with both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications against non-dual-certified firms.
  • Resource reduction awareness correlated positively with both AIoT cold chain implementation and operational performance.
  • AIoT cold chain adoption significantly improved operational performance directly and indirectly through enhanced supply–demand control.
  • The positive relationship between AIoT cold chain implementation and operational performance was significantly stronger in firms maintaining dual ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications.
