| description | Abstract Complex food supply chains face increasing risks that can affect product quality and safety, which can all lead to recalls. This paper analyzes the role that traceability plays in the different stages of beef recall management. A case study was conducted in two beef supply chains and stakeholders from these chains were interviewed. Content analysis was performed using QDA Miner software. The results are summarized into a framework that describes the role of traceability before, during, and after a recall. In total, 18 roles were identified, including reevaluating partnerships with suppliers. Some of these results had not previously been discussed in the literature. The findings indicate that both the target market segment and company size are key factors influencing the level of investment in traceability. Traceability is an increasingly essential aspect of the beef supply chain, yet empirical studies exploring this from various levels and stakeholder perspectives are limited. This study provides insights for professionals in the food supply chain helping them understand the various roles that food traceability plays in managing potential recalls. |
