IBM has finally launched a Blockchain powered food tracking platform for food supply chain manufacturers. The company has named the platform as ‘The IBM Food Trust’. IBM has launched it as a SAAS (Solution-As-A-Service) cloud platform. It will give unmatched visibility into the lifecycle process of fresh products and proteins.

The platform rolled out one of its highly sought-after projects after 18 months of rigorous testing. With this platform, it will be easy to trace any niche of food supply from the firm to the warehouse.

In September, the world’s biggest supply chain giant Wallmart has also announced to run a Blockchain tracking system to track leafy vegetables. The list of companies as the early adopters of this food traceability platform is also public. It includes names like Nestle, Kroger, Tyson Foods, Kroger and Unilever.

IBM has launched it as a SAAS (Solution-As-A-Service) cloud platform. It will give unmatched visibility into the lifecycle process of fresh products and proteins. IBM is of the opinion that Blockchain has the capability to offer more solutions to real-life problems than we have ever imagined. However, it needs a collaborative approach.

Bridget van Kralingen, senior vice president for IBM Global Industries explained the same. He told that IBM Food Trust is capable enough to give full transparency to the consumers as well as suppliers with a collaborative approach, he said. Adding further he told that the technology has successfully overcome the common barriers to offer a unmtached quality of service.
