Why blockchain for produce
Concern about food safety, fraud and environmental impact is driving demand for transparency across the whole value chain. A blockchain record cannot be altered after the fact, so origin and handling claims can be verified by buyers and consumers.
- Immutable origin and handling records
- QR codes for packs and pallets
- No extra cost for existing clients
- Uses data already captured in Producepak
Chain-Trace and Producepak
Producepak already records lots, batches, QC and dispatch. Chain-Trace publishes the chosen records to a blockchain and generates QR codes for packs and pallets. For existing Producepak clients there are no consulting fees, subscriptions or extra costs.
Cost compared with enterprise platforms
Enterprise food blockchain platforms have historically charged subscription fees that put them out of reach of small and medium packers. Building the capability into the packhouse system removes that barrier.
