While there has been a great deal of investment in improving the sustainability of the food industry, one of the outstanding challenges is being able to reliably trace products to source. This leaves the industry - and our plates - open to corruption, fraud, human rights abuses and exploitation. Blockchain technology offers the possibility of a fully traceable, accountable and transparent supply chain - by digitally connecting the dots we can ensure a clean, corruption-free, abuse-free and fair food supply chain exists.
