This study investigates how blockchain technology can advance sustainability in supply
chains across multiple industries, including food, energy, textiles, and finance.
By synthesizing recent international literature and analyzing industry case studies,
the research identifies both the opportunities and limitations of blockchain in supporting
the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The study addresses how blockchain contributes
to transparency and traceability in supply chains, the main barriers to its widespread
adoption, and the practical pathways that exist for leveraging blockchain to enhance
sustainability. The findings reveal that while blockchain offers significant potential
for improving supply chain transparency, efficiency, and accountability,
challenges such as high energy consumption, scalability, and regulatory uncertainty
remain. The paper concludes with policy recommendations and directions for future
research to maximize the sustainable impact of blockchain technology.
