Abstract
The wider impact of blockchain is considered one of the core technologies for the next generation of intelligent web that adopts information technologies to enhance food safety and security, thereby enhancing sustainable food trading. This technology can be adopted in a wide range of applications such as healthcare, logistics, food trading, etc. Among these, coffee trading is one of the sectors that can benefit from blockchain due to its traceability and security features. Traditional coffee trading faces challenges due to geographical and cultural differences, leading to unfair practices and trust issues. Currently, there is no reliable and secure platform in the coffee trading business. This article introduces “Cof3Lib,” a coffee trading platform integrating decentralization and blockchain to provide food safety and trading security. To our knowledge, it's one of the first blockchain-based platforms addressing traditional coffee trading challenges. It ensures transparency, traceability, visibility, and accuracy in coffee trading operations and logistics management. By leveraging blockchain technology, it aims to revolutionize the food industry, creating a more equitable and efficient trading ecosystem for food technology.
