Food businesses need continuous proof of safety, quality, and regulatory compliance across farms, processing, logistics, and distribution; paper records are slow and vulnerable to gaps.
R&D Focus
Permissioned blockchain; food-safety validation; digital certification; IoT and ERP integration.
Innovative Solution
Decapolis Food Guard captures safety and quality data at critical control points, checks it against standards, stores validated records on a permissioned blockchain, and exposes batch history through QR codes.
Solution Effectiveness
Fresh Del Monte announced a rollout across all business segments beginning with Costa Rican pineapples. Decapolis and the World Food Programme also worked with more than 600 smallholder farmers. No independent cost-reduction percentage was disclosed.
