Food chain product label and method of use, and food trust identifier system

Abstract

A blockchain-based “food chain” system and method for tracking products such as RFID labels and associating them with other products. Such a method may ensure authenticity at each step, ensuring that the digital identity of a physical item can be accurately verified. The method may include receiving and verifying integrated circuit chips manufactured by a trusted supplier, assembling the chips into a roll inlay, assembling these into a carton and pallet and updating the blockchain with roll, carton, and pallet codes, taking receipt from a specific trusted individual and adding verification to the blockchain, and activating a digital identity. GPS information may be associated with every step in order to ensure that the product is properly present at certain manufacturing and encoding locations. Once a digital identity is produced for the product, it may be added to an associated blockchain, and additional information may further be added by subsequent use.
