Blockchain as a technology has the potential to redefine businesses, and their logistics. The traditional logistics value chain is a very complex and time consuming process that is done manually by various authorities involved in the supply chain. With the introduction of blockchain in this concept these issues as the vital data can be stored in various blocks, wasting no time in documentation and information is shared only with relevant stakeholders.
