RFID Brings Temperature Visibility to Pizza Chain

Mar Pizza, one of the largest business owners of Domino's Pizza franchises, is installing an Internet of Things system with ZigBee-based technology from Unified Office to manage temperatures at its approximately 70 restaurants. The system consists of wireless temperature sensors transmitting information to a hub at each site, and a cloud-based server on which the collected sensor data can be managed. The system is designed to enhance food-safety compliance and eliminate waste by improving food inventory management. In addition, Robert Scheiper, Mar Pizza's VP, says he expects the solution to reduce energy consumption.
