Blockchain as a Reinforcement for Traceability of Indonesian Halal Food Information through the Value Chain Analysis Framework

Abstract

This research is to offer the use of blockchain for the traceability of information about halal food as a form of developing a traceability system that ensures and maintains the quality of halal food and drinks in Indonesia. This research departs from the rampant counterfeiting of products, which also continues to increase, especially in relation to food and beverages. This causes huge losses from an economic standpoint, both for companies and producers, has an impact on the country's economy, and erodes consumer confidence due to unclear information, especially regarding confusing halal traceability. This research is a literature review developed through the Value Chain Analysis Framework. A value chain analysis framework that supports blockchain in reminding companies to focus on development that will help achieve the Indonesian halal industry supply chain in accordance with government standards engaged in the Indonesian halal industry. This study develops the concept of a halal value chain that strengthens the role of blockchain technology and pays attention to the finances in each block needed by the supply chain.
