Today, an overseas shipment of products require verification by more than 20 entities. These verifications mainly involve paper works. If a supporting paper is missing, the cargo (shipment process) will standstill. This slows down the entire process. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Blockchain can eliminate this problem and excess cost on shipment.
