Abstract

A system (10) is provided for monitoring the food product of a remote food product retailer (14) . The system includes a manageme nt center (12) in commucation with the remote food product retailer (14) via a communication network (18). The communication network (18) is accessible via a user interface (24) that may be located at any of the management center(12), the remote location (14) or some other location. The management center (12) gathers food product temperature information and uses that inforamtion to determine whether hte shelved food product is within acceptable food safety and quality limits. If the food product exceeds these limits, an alarm is sounded at either the management center (12) and a remote location(14).The user interface (24) is operable to monitor t he status of the food product via a selection of screens and remotely respond to the alarms.
