Dutch Supermarket Chain Uses Blockchain To Make Orange Juice Supply Chain Transparent

September 21, 2018: 12:00 AM EST

According to International Supermarket News, Dutch supermarket chain Albert Heijin is using Blockchain to make transparent the supply chain for its orange juice. The new system will be launched in partnership with Refresco, one of the company’s suppliers and will enable customers to track the product’s journey from Brazil to the Netherlands by using a QR code on the carton. The food industry is beginning to discover and embrace the potential of blockchain, helped by tech companies working on solutions for the sector. For example, Walmart has been working with IBM on a blockchain system to reduce food waste and improve food safety.[Image Credit: © Gewoon bij Albert Heijn]
