Investment into the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has increased productivity for food manufacturers. The report also found that IoT is expected to create more than a million jobs in the next five years. The data collected can be used to analyse and improve processes further to ensure high quality products are produced at the lowest overhead cost. The connection between existing, long-standing operations technology and new data-heavy information technology is managed through the IIoT-enable technology.
