摘要：In order to benefit from RFID adoption, entire RFID infrastructure must first be established and supply chain companies should conduct considerable up-front analyses to assess their readiness. The purpose of this study is to survey the readiness of supply chain companies in Iran for RFID adoption. Therefore, facilities, conditions and necessary readiness for the successful adoption of RFID systems in Iranian grocery supply chain companies have been investigated. The study involved survey data from 89 Iranian grocery supply chain companies. The findings reveals that grocery supply chain companies in Iran are overall not ready for RFID adoption and to adopt these systems successfully; in the first step, technological, organizational, and environmental problems and challenges of supply chain companies must be wiped out. This subject, besides Iranian grocery supply chain companies, could be also extended to other supply chain companies in Iran.
