The blockchain technology is set to boost the ability of Ethiopian coffee farmers to save their earnings.
Though Ethiopia’s coffee industry is currently worth $100 billion, 90 percent of the coffee farmers earn less than $2 a day.
Now the blockchain technology allows farmers to deal directly with buyers without having to involve middlemen (exporters and importers) hence gaining more profit.
The roastery together with the innovative use of blockchain technology will ensure the supply chain is transparent in order for Ethiopia to earn more.
