Abstract

Blockchain technology is changing how supply chains work by making things faster, more open, and secure, while also making complicated tasks easier and solving old problems. Blockchain is distributed technology that is safe and secure and once the information is entered into this chain, it cannot be modified. Thus, Blockchain ensures trust and traceability, making it useful for many applications. Blockchain ensures higher security and protects data from any tampering. It also provides the facility of smart contracts for easy workflow. Additionally, Blockchain helps brands show that their products meet industry standards, which builds trust with customers. Overall, this technology is important for making sure goods and services are safe and reliable, while also simplifying how supply chains work. In this chapter, we will explore how Blockchain helps track products in the supply chain, explain smart contracts in detail, and look at some case studies to better understand these ideas.
