VeChain is reaching a higher level as it gains in importance in China
The VeChain Foundation has recently announced important partnerships. This includes e-commerce, the environment and other industries. The organization was part of the summit on food safety in the Chinese Alliance for Animal Health and Food Safety (CAFA) on July 7, 2021.
This organization consists of some of the biggest names in the industry, such as Starbucks, Unilever China, Mars China, YumChina and Cargill and many more. VeChain is the only public blockchain provider for this alliance. During the summit, the foundation addressed the potential of traceability in agriculture, which connects and transforms the entire value chain, from producers to customers and government agencies.
The CFAA operates directly under a government institution called the China National Agricultural Science and Technology Innovation Alliance. VeChain’s participation in the summit, organized by the Ministry of Agriculture of the People’s Republic of China, demonstrates the importance of this platform for the Asian giant.
The Alliance has decided to build a traceable system using blockchain technology. Members of this initiative will be able to record, share and secure data on the VeChainThor blockchain. This increases trust between final consumers and companies.
