Onze inspanningen om blockchain toe te passen op de koffieketen blijven niet onopgemerkt. Guido reisde eerder al naar de Wereldbank in Washington met Minister Kaag. En eind augustus bezocht hij met de VN thee- en cacaoboeren in Ecuador. Collega Sander sprak in Rome bij het FAO congres van de VN. Ondertussen werken we achter de schermen aan een nieuw blockchain platform dat we komende oogst willen testen bij de boeren. Daar kunnen we je over een tijdje dus meer over vertellen. En in de volgende update ook nieuws over ons Token experiment.
“We see blockchain as the best liedetector”
BlockChain as liedetector
Blockchain provides a reliable and transparent system for tracking every single transaction in the value chain, right down to what smallholder farmers are paid and when. What’s more, it shifts value to where it belongs, facilitating efficient digital payment to directly the farmer, no more middlemen. Blockchain is a giant step towards fairness. It is decentralized, unalterable and publicly available.
Blockchain makes shared value chains and inclusive business model possible. Read more.
FairChain goes beyond certification. Over the past few decades, major coffee multinationals profited dearly off the labor of smallholder coffee farmers in developing countries. Today, coffee-producing countries receive just 2% of the added value of the typical cup of coffee.
We are about to embark on a new coffee venture by introducing Blockchain technology to our FairChain smallholder farmers in Limu, Ethiopia.
BlockChain will be key in our ambition to drive value to the farmers, give them acces to credit and work towards a living Income.
Towards Transparent Supply Chains
Nou nou phoe phoe wat een eer!
