Abstract

The fusion of Quick Response (QR) codes with blockchain technology creates a robust solution against counterfeit goods in the supply chain. QR codes, widely used in web applications, streamline verification processes. When linked to blockchain, they establish an immutable ledger, storing vital product details. Upon scanning, users input their unique code, cross-referenced with blockchain records. Matching codes yield comprehensive product information, ensuring authenticity. Conversely, mismatches signal counterfeit status. This integration enhances trust and transparency, empowering stakeholders to track and verify product authenticity, mitigating risks associated with counterfeit goods. In summary, this innovative approach combines supply chain management, blockchain, and QR technology to combat counterfeiting effectively.
