  • Patent number: 11694282
    Abstract: A platform built on blockchain that is designed to help increase traceability, efficiency and fairness in agricultural supply chains, such as the coffee, cocoa, tea, sugar, grains and fruit supply chains. The platform includes a Self-Sovereign Identity solution, a new form of digital identity built on distributed ledger technology. Farmers, wholesalers, traders and retailers can interact more efficiently using comprehensive, near real-time access to this data, and consumers can have new insights about the origins of the products they consume. The platform includes a consumer-facing application that pulls information directly from the blockchain and connects the final consumer, e.g. a coffee drinker, to farmers, traders, roasters and brands. The information is presented on an interactive map, allowing each product to tell a story in a simple and scalable way. The app also presents sustainability projects in coffee communities and an opportunity for consumers to directly support them.
