Walmart and IBM team up to track shrimp using blockchain
Walmart has announced a pilot to track shrimp imports from India to the USA using blockchain technology.
The retail giant plans to track shrimp imports between Andhra Pradesh, a gorgeous coastal region in India’s southeast, and U.S.-based retail warehouses, using blockchain technology developed by IBM. It will feature “end-to-end traceability,” according to a press release issued Friday.
