Logistical networks deliver food via complex distribution channels that encircle the earth. Supply chains range from hand delivery of a neighbor's garden vegetables to the importation of exotic and rare processed foods using specialized trans-global distribution systems. Farm markets, conventional grocery stores, restaurants, fast food take-outs, food service institutions and direct marketing systems are supplied by a myriad of operational variations. They are also supplied by a wide range of package types, sizes and formats.
