TE-FOOD is a food quality and supply ecosystem for emerging markets, which integrates food supply chain companies, consumers, and authorities into one traceability solution. It starts tracking animals at the farms, collects all logistics and food quality information, and follows them through processing, distribution and sales, right to the consumers. Started in 2016, TE-FOOD serves more than 6000 business customers, and handles 400,000 transactions each day.
The ShipChain platform is based on a simple, yet powerful solution called 'Track and Trace.' Our ecosystem will encompass all methods of freight, and will include an open API architecture that can integrate with existing freight management software. The ShipChain platform unifies shipment tracking on the Ethereum blockchain, using a sidechain to track individual encrypted geographic waypoints across each smart contract. With this system, the meaning of each cryptographic waypoint is only accessible for interpretation by the parties involved in the shipment itself. This gives shippers more visibility across their supply chain, and allows carriers to communicate with ease. Information about loads, geo waypoints, and other basic information is recorded and publicly validated within the sidechain. On the shipment's delivery and confirmation, the contract is completed and stored on the main blockchain.
