The lack of transparency and traceability in food supply chains (FSCs) is raising concerns among consumers and stakeholders about food information credibility, food quality, and safety. Insufficient records, a lack of digitalization and standardization of processes, and information exchange are some of the most critical challenges, which can be tackled with disruptive technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, and distributed ledger technologies (DLTs). Studies provide evidence that novel technological and sustainable practices in FSCs are necessary. This paper aims to describe current practical applications of DLTs and IoT in FSCs, investigating the challenges of implementation, and potentials for future research directions, thus contributing to achievement of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Within a systematic literature review, the content of 69 academic publications was analyzed, describing aspects of implementation and measures to address the challenges of scalability, security, and privacy of DLT, and IoT solutions. The challenges of high costs, standardization, regulation, interoperability, and energy consumption of DLT solutions were also classified as highly relevant, but were not widely addressed in literature. The application of DLTs in FSCs can potentially contribute to 6 strategic SDGs, providing synergies and possibilities for more sustainable, traceable, and transparent FSCs.

“…Because food supply chains are essential for society, they have attracted more interest in applying blockchain technology on them than any other industry. Some of the addressed challenges are transparency, provenance, performance improvement, quality assurance and control, and achieving sustainability [25]- [31], [35], [36], [46], [64], [71]- [80]. Food supply chains comprise many stages and they may not be finely monitored and tracked.…”

Supply chains are challenged with providing transparency and trust among participants and stakeholders and ensuring an efficient operation. However, some of these challenges are difficult to resolve because the records of a supply chain can be altered by its participants. The emergence of blockchain technology has been identified as a promising solution to resolve these challenges. Blockchain is an immutable distributed ledger. Here, we introduce blockchain and survey different blockchain frameworks that have been recently proposed to address some of the supply chain challenges. We describe the operation of these blockchain frameworks and their components. We identify the objectives and motivation in each of the surveyed use cases and highlight the advantages and disadvantages of each adopted framework by different industries. We analyze how the reported blockchain frameworks address supply chain challenges. We present a comparative summary of existing literature on blockchain for supply chain. We also summarize the properties of a blockchain framework for its successful adoption in future supply chains and discuss several challenges and opportunities that remain for future research.
