The Internet of Things (IoT) is bringing revolutionary change to the refrigerated and frozen foods sector, connecting intelligent machines and advanced analytics to help companies comply with more demanding food safety regulations with greater efficiency. In fact, a 2016 Business Insider report stated that global manufacturers will invest $70 billion in IoT solutions in the year 2020 alone. This figure, compared to the $29 billion invested in 2015, signals that IoT may become a permanent but evolving fixture in food manufacturing.
