General information
- Short Summary
- A Portuguese company specialized in cybersecurity and blockchain offers an innovative food traceability solution. The technology ensures full transparency, regulatory compliance, and consumer trust. The company seeks distributors, integrators, or end clients under commercial or license agreements.
- Full Description
-
A digital system has been developed to enable full traceability of food products—from the origin of raw materials to the final packaged item.
The solution uses blockchain technology to ensure that all data recorded along the production chain is tamper-proof, authentic, and auditable.
This traceability system is particularly suited to companies operating in the agri-food sector—such as farmers, food processors, distributors, or quality certification entities—who need to demonstrate product integrity, ensure compliance with food safety regulations, and build consumer trust. All steps in the production process are digitally recorded, allowing full visibility of the product’s lifecycle: origin, transport, processing, packaging, and delivery.
Unlike traditional systems that rely on central databases or manual documentation, this solution uses a decentralized and encrypted method for data registration. The result is a transparent, secure and immutable history of each food product, accessible by relevant stakeholders with authorization.
The system is designed for flexibility and can be adapted to the operational reality of each client. It includes an intuitive web interface and integration via programming interfaces for connection with existing business software. It can also be embedded into logistics, warehouse, or production systems already in use.
Key innovative aspects include:
• End-to-end data validation, reducing human error and fraud.
• Instant access to the full product history, which can significantly speed up internal investigations or recall procedures.
• Use of cryptographic proofs instead of direct data exposure, ensuring compliance with data privacy laws.
• A digital certificate of authenticity for each product batch.
Preliminary results from pilot projects indicate:
• Up to 40% time reduction in internal audits and compliance reporting.
• Improvement in consumer trust when traceability information is publicly disclosed.
• Elimination of duplicate or lost records in 100% of tested scenarios.
The companie has a multidisciplinary team with backgrounds in cybersecurity, data systems, and food regulation. All development was done in-house, with full ownership of the underlying infrastructure and intellectual property.
This food traceability solution supports international food safety regulations, including:
• Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP)
• ISO 22000 Food Safety Management
• Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA)
• General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
We are seeking partnerships to scale this technology across Europe and globally. Potential partners include distributors of digital solutions, technology integrators, food certification entities, and food production businesses. The preferred types of cooperation are commercial agreements with technical assistance or license agreements. - Advantages and Innovations
