Abstract
The food industry is very resource-intensive and continuously under stakeholder’s scanner to address the impact of climate change, resource scarcity, ever-changing consumer demands and stringent legislations. It has resulted in the food industry adopting Industry 4.0 initiatives for changes. In this context, one of the key focus is on enhancing transparency through Augmented Reality (AR) experiences. Although the food industry has seen a rise in the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies, the implementation of AR remains significantly low. This paper defines AR, its benefits, and challenges, and proposes a framework for AR implementation in the food industry.

Summary
AR has seen a rapid rise in its popularity Tom Caudell coined it in 1990. As per Statista, AR revenues generated from AR devices and AR services were USD 54 billion in 2018 and are expected to reach USD 186 by the end of 2020 [15]. These six challenges are derived from the extensive literature and practical experiences of the industry
