Abstract :
The fresh food logistics outsourcing quality supervision is analyzed by using the game theory. Based on different hypothesis models of one-stage game and multi-stage games are established. And the equilibrium strategy for the two parties is produced. Some key factors impact on the two parties. Some factors like the supervision cost of the fresh food enterprises and the cheat amount for the third party company are discussed. Then the paper suggests that fresh food enterprises reduce the risks or the quality problems of the logistics outsourcing.
