Blockchain in retail refers to a disruptive technology that relies on cryptography to record digital transactions on a distributed ledger in the retail industry. It is a cost-effective solution as it automates the transactions and the interoperability of applications and eliminates the need for administration. It assists businesses in tracking the product back to the supply chain, identifying suppliers, manufacturers, and batches to solve supply chain issues. It enables decentralized identity (DID), which helps retailers verify user identity and data when required. In addition, it streamlines administrative processes in the back offices of retailers, thereby allowing employees to focus more on value-added work.
The growing demand for transparent transactions in the retail industry to build trust between suppliers, companies, and customers represents one of the key factors driving the market. Moreover, there is a rise in investments by retailers in blockchain-based solutions to ensure quality, reliability, authenticity, and product safety. This, along with increasing technological advancements and international trade in the retail sector, is propelling the growth of the market. In addition, blockchain offers enhanced cryptographic security for its databases and transactions that help in fraud reduction and sustainability of retailers. This, coupled with the increasing utilization of blockchain in retail for digital payment, online shopping, and risk and compliance, is positively influencing the market. Besides this, the rising employment of blockchain in retail to monitor supply chain transactions for easy traceability of goods is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry players. Additionally, the escalating demand for smart contracts to save time and cost of companies and remove merchants who charge extra for authenticating a transaction is bolstering the market growth.
