the logistics industry for enhancing green supply chains with blockchain technology, where it is

being used to bring new levels of trust between trading partners and to promote end-to-end

visibility.

the means to automate processes, eliminate intermediaries, and provide real-time data access,

thus reducing administrative burdens, minimizing errors, and improving overall efficiency.
