A Study on Traceability and Accountability in Supply Chain Transparency Using Blockchain Technology

ABSTRACT This article explores the critical importance of traceability and accountability within modern supply chains, and how blockchain technology provides innovative solutions to enhance transparency and trust. Drawing upon literature, case studies, and emerging practices, the study identifies the transformative potential of distributed ledger technology (DLT) in tackling issues such as product authenticity, fraud, and ethical sourcing. As supply chains become increasingly complex, blockchain emerges as a decentralized mechanism to record, verify, and share immutable transaction data across all stakeholders, ensuring end-to-end visibility.
