BLOCKCHAIN, SUPPLY CHAIN, SUSTAINABILITY - Coggle Diagram

- - - - HOW?
        
        1. MAP THE PROCESS
        
        Start by mapping the entire supply chain: who produces what, in which order, and where each step takes place. It is like creating a “map” of the product’s journey from raw material to final customer
        
        2. CHOOSE WHAT DATA TO UPLOAD ON THE BLOCKCHAIN
        
        examples in fashion include: Material origin: “certified organic cotton, region X”
        
        3. CHOOSE THE BLOCKCHAIN TECNOLOGY
        
        Public blockchain (open to everyone)
        
        Permissioned blockchain (access granted only to authorized actors) più usata dalle aziende di moda
        
        4. CONNECT ALL SUPPLY-CHAIN ACTORS
        
        Each participant (suppliers, manufacturers, dye houses, logistics, retailers) accesses the blockchain through a simple interface and enters the data relevant to their stage.
        
        example: the supplier records where and how the cotton was processed; the manufacturer registers the date and place of stitching.
        
        5. CREATE THE PRODUCT'S DIGITAL TWIN
        
        smart digital replica of the physical item, updated over time with QR codes.
        
        6. INTEGRATE EVERYTHING INTO THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
        
        The customer can verify the certified history of the product by:
        • Scanning a QR code;
        • Using the brand’s app;
        • Accessing a dedicated blockchain explorer
- - - - Use lower-impact materials, cleaner processes, certified suppliers, and optimized transportation
      - Support circular practices such as recycling, resale, and extended product life
      - Integrate sustainability at every stage
      - Aim for a more transparent, responsible, and sustainability-aligned fashion ecosystem.
      - Not all blockchains are sustainable: some consume a lot of energy, while the more efficient ones (such as permissioned ones) are consistent with fashion’s environmental goals. Blockchain’s real strength lies in transparency and accountability, but true “green” value depends on brands’ choices about materials, processes, and governance.
