Nowadays, consumers are increasingly concerned about the safety and origin of food. In recent years, food scandals, sometimes over-reacted by the press, have fundamentally shaken consumer confidence in food available in stores. In order to be able to deal with emergencies more effectively and to increase consumer confidence in products, more up-to-date solutions and measures should be introduced. In most modern traceability systems block-chain technology is used for data storage and sharing. It enables users to track the path of products in real time through the decentralized system provided by a blockchain. This technology complements the current barcode and RFID-based product tracking solutions that bring fundamental changes to food supply chains, but many companies are deliberately resisting system deployment, partly due to excessive cost burdens. In our study, we are looking for the answer to the conditions that can be effectively applied by this decentralized database technology, what are the benefits of its introduction, and the challenges facing food companies that support technology. We analyzed the two most widely used solutions by IBM and a Hungarian-based company and comparing the "traditional" food traceability systems. As a result, our goal is to develop a recommendation system that will enable food businesses to get a clearer picture about the use of blockchain technology and can decide whether such a development project can be rewarded for them.
