Abstract

Industry 4.0 or fourth industrial generation, is well known as the Internet of Things (IOT) which is a means of communication for humans that will allow us to have many intelligent systems for business that help the collection and use of data in the cloud, this will bring us many improvements for the search for solutions in manufacturing and logistics processes. That is, with the advent of this industry, technology has played an important role in the modernization of logistics processes. Digital platforms have allowed the distribution processes of goods to become faster, more efficient, reliable and economical. This Industry 4.0 is an excellent strategy to implement in the food sector of Barranquilla, since it meets the basic needs in relation to logistics, such as the high need for transparency and integrity control along the supply chain (right products, at the right time, place and right quantities and at a good price) which greatly benefits food companies since this fourth industry helps to adapt to the needs of customers, to improve the distribution of products and to be more efficient in delivery times.
