Abstract – Food industry comprises as one of the most important and huge industries worldwide, it consists of the group of the     industries which are directly or indirectly involved in the processing of a food product. Food industries can be related to the production, distribution, preservation, processing, conversation and storage of a food commodity. The Internet of Things (IoT) enables real-time visualization of supply chain business processes, information gathering and monitoring of business development. For the food industry, it helps to maintain safety standards, limit food wastage, manage unpredictable variability, monitor and monitor food quality. It is expected that IoT solutions will affect not only the way food is produced, but also social, environmental and economic concerns. Therefore, IoT systems applied to the food industry are extensively studied in the existing literature. In this project we are mainly focusing on fruit preservation industry and ripening as well as storage of a particular fruit that is Banana . Banana ripening requires a particular temperature as well as a particular gas that is ethylene. Cold storage is considered an important aspect of managing food safety to maintain food quality. The temperature, relative humidity (RH) and air quality in cold rooms (CSR) should be carefully controlled to ensure food quality and safety during cold storage. IoT-based (IoT-BC) control with multifunctional sensors in food technologies provides solutions for post-harvest fruit quality management. For this project the main component requirement is Node mcu 8266. Node MCU is a Lua-based open-source firmware and development card specifically designed for IoT applications. It includes firmware that runs on the ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoC from Express if Systems, and hardware which is based on the ESP-12 module.
