As consumer expectations for food quality continue to rise, fresh food chains handling fruits, vegetables, meat, seafood, and other perishable items must rely on a well-established cold chain system and environmental monitoring to guarantee freshness. Under traditional management, manual intermittent temperature checks can hardly cover the entire chain from storage to display, meaning food often spoils unnoticed. IoT solutions built on Технология Bluetooth с низким энергопотреблением, using Bluetooth sensors for real-time temperature and humidity monitoring and intelligent positioning, are quickly becoming the core choice for upgrading cold chain management in fresh food retail brands.

Ensure Food Freshness

Difficulties

For large-scale fresh food chains, all types of fresh produce, fruits, vegetables, seafood, meat, must be kept under stable and suitable temperature and humidity conditions from the central warehouse to the end store. Warehouses usually rely on manual inspection and temperature measurement, which is difficult to sustain round-the-clock, uninterrupted coverage, and refrigeration equipment anomalies are hard to detect in time. Refrigerated cabinets and fresh food display areas in stores are similarly checked on fixed schedules, inevitably leaving gaps and making it hard to consistently guarantee the freshness of products on sale. Without continuous real-time temperature data throughout the entire chain, staff often can only react passively when environmental deviations occur.

Moreover, with such a wide variety of fresh products in chain stores, customers find it difficult to quickly locate specific items and cannot easily access information on new products or real-time discounts. Both store operational efficiency and the customer experience have significant room for improvement, creating an urgent need for an intelligent management solution that covers the entire chain.

Решение

Bluetooth Sensor for Cold Chain Monitoring

To address these problems, the fresh food chain introduced a Bluetooth Низкая энергия (БЛЕ)-based temperature and humidity monitoring solution, built around sensor beacons that combine temperature and humidity monitoring with Bluetooth positioning.

The маяк is compact and easy to install. Deployed in central warehouses, refrigerated cabinets in retail stores, and fresh food display areas, it continuously collects temperature and humidity data from each zone. This data is uploaded to a cloud management platform via gateways in real time, enabling managers to monitor the environmental status of the entire chain at any moment. The system allows customizable safe thresholds for temperature and humidity; when readings exceed the set limits, alarms are automatically triggered and staff are notified to take swift action, effectively reducing the risk of food spoilage. At the same time, complete historical environmental data is retained for full-process quality traceability, environmental change analysis, and predictive maintenance of equipment.

Additionally, leveraging Bluetooth positioning and information broadcasting capabilities, stores can implement refined zone management for different fresh food categories and provide smart navigation services. Using in-store screens or a dedicated app, customers can quickly locate target products and receive real-time updates on new arrivals and discount promotions, significantly improving both store operational efficiency and the in-store shopping experience.

Key Product

FSC-BP121 is a Bluetooth 5.1 Низкая энергия (БЛЕ) temperature and humidity sensor beacon that combines high-precision environmental sensing with Bluetooth positioning capabilities. It achieves ±0.2°C temperature accuracy and ±2% RH humidity accuracy, reliably capturing subtle environmental fluctuations.

With a compact minimalist design, extended battery life and versatile mounting options, тот маяк continuously logs temperature and humidity data across key scenarios including warehouses and in-store display zones. Leveraging Bluetooth positioning and data broadcasting, it enables zoned management of fresh produce categories and in-store smart navigation services.
