Abstract

As the pace of urban life gradually accelerates, prefabricated foods that balance efficiency and health have come into the public view. Given the rapid development of the prefabricated food industry in China, studying relevant issues in the prefabricated food supply chain is of great significance. This article conducts a literature review by searching for keywords such as prefabricated foods, supply chain pricing, and blockchain technology, analyzing trends, and summarizing findings. It is found that research on prefabricated foods, both domestically and internationally, mainly covers aspects such as raw material processing, product quality, microbial contamination prevention and control, and nutritional value assessment. Regarding pricing decisions in food supply chains, the literature discusses the impact of food loss, inventory strategies, market demand, and pricing on profits. Additionally, researchers have explored the application of blockchain technology in food supply chains, including the influence of conditions and parameters on pricing decisions. Although existing research provides important insights into prefabricated food supply chain management, there are still some limitations. Future research directions include sustainability and environmental factors, emerging markets and international trade, and the application of digital and intelligent technologies. These studies will provide theoretical guidance and practical recommendations for the sustainable development and innovation of prefabricated food supply chains, supporting the establishment of efficient shared cooperative relationships.
