Abstract

This article uses a literature review about postponement, decoupling point and cold chain to offer alternatives for Brazilian distribution of refrigerated chicken. It was possible to conclude that a decoupling point between first and further industrialization can be a viable option for selling and distributing refrigerated chicken that has from seven to maximum of thirty days of shelf life.
