Perishable products are goods that have a limited shelf life and can lose their quality, safety, freshness, or usefulness within a short period. Fruits, vegetables, milk, dairy products, meat, fish, medicines, vaccines, and certain processed foods are important examples of perishable products. The distribution of such products involves several stages, including procurement, storage, transportation, handling, wholesaling, retailing, and final delivery to consumers. Because these products can deteriorate quickly, ethical practices are extremely important in their distribution. Business ethics requires organisations and distribution partners to act honestly, responsibly, fairly, and transparently while protecting the interests of consumers, employees, suppliers, society, and the environment. One of the most important ethical practices is ensuring product quality and safety. Distributors have a moral responsibility to ensure that products reaching consumers are safe for consumption or use. They should not knowingly distribute spoiled, contaminated, expired, or damaged goods. For example, a dairy distributor must maintain appropriate refrigeration while transporting milk and should remove products that have crossed their expiry dates. Selling spoiled milk merely to avoid financial loss is unethical because it places consumer health at risk. Ethical distribution therefore gives priority to consumer safety over short-term profit. Proper storage and temperature control are also essential ethical responsibilities. Many perishable products require specific temperature and humidity conditions. The cold chain must be maintained from the producer to the final consumer. For example, vaccines may require strict temperature control throughout transportation and storage. If a distributor fails to maintain the required temperature and nevertheless supplies the vaccines
