New Blockchain Traceability Feature Launched

GoLocal Nepal has launched its revolutionary blockchain-powered supply chain traceability feature, marking a significant milestone in ensuring food safety and providing recognition to farmers for their quality produce.

How It Works

The new Agro Chain system creates an immutable record of every step in the agricultural supply chain, from farm to consumer. Each product receives a unique QR code that consumers can scan to trace the complete journey of their food.

Key Features

  • Complete Traceability: Track products from farm to fork
  • QR Code System: Easy scanning for consumers
  • Farmer Recognition: Direct connection between consumers and producers
  • Quality Certification: Digital certificates for organic and quality standards
  • Fraud Prevention: Immutable blockchain records prevent counterfeiting

Benefits for Stakeholders

For Farmers:

  • Premium pricing for quality produce
  • Direct recognition from consumers
  • Transparent supply chain participation

For Consumers:

  • Complete transparency about food origin
  • Assurance of food safety and quality
  • Support for local farmers

For Retailers:

  • Enhanced consumer trust
  • Reduced liability risks
  • Competitive advantage through transparency

"This blockchain implementation represents the future of food safety and farmer empowerment," said Bikash Thapa, Head of Product. "We're creating a system where quality is rewarded and transparency is guaranteed."

Pilot Program Results

Our pilot program with 50 farmers and 10 retailers has shown remarkable results:

  • 15% increase in farmer income through premium pricing
  • 90% consumer satisfaction with transparency
  • Zero incidents of fraud or counterfeiting
  • 25% increase in consumer trust in participating retailers
