-

Its Food Traceabili­ty Initiative, which helps Walmart detect contaminat­ion and other food safety issues, now tracks nearly 500 items like fresh leafy greens, coffee, seafood and meat. Last year, it assisted the FDA with six investigat­ions into food safety and was able to provide detailed informatio­n on the original source of potential contaminat­ion within an hour. This year, Walmart will conduct a pilot with U.S. Customs and Border Protection to track imported foods. BLOCKCHAIN PLATFORM: Hyperledge­r Fabric
