Abstract

The study examines the impact of blockchain on international trade in the food industry, focusing on its ability to improve food safety and traceability. The objective is to analyze the implementation and impact of blockchain in the food industry, as well as the challenges and limitations it faces. The methodology includes a systematic review of the literature using databases such as Web Of Science and Scopus to collect relevant information. Relevant case studies are presented that demonstrate the successful application of blockchain in international trade in the food industry. Blockchain has been successfully implemented by leading companies such as Walmart, Nestlé, Unilever and Alibaba, improving food safety and reducing food waste. However, the lack of training and application of blockchain in the food industry remains a limitation. The technology is expected to continue to grow and have a significant impact on international trade in the food industry, despite the challenges present in its implementation.
