As our world is growing, our technology moving forward, people demands have also changed. People have been making trades and sending goods from all around the world. As the day passed, our demand for safe and reliable service for goods transportation has increased. Especially foods and pharma goods. Some are very fragile and wasted very easily. This is the place where Smart Containers saw their chance. This is the place what Smart Containers will disrupt.

Our current logistics industry is very big and also it's getting bigger as days passing. Foods and pharma goods transportation is very sensitive and sometimes they get wasted just from a small change in the atmosphere. Smart Containers will provide a container made just for these transportation. They are made with cutting edge technology and they are temperature controlled very carefully.

The containers which Smart Containers will provide will have a tracking system to track the temperature inside the container. This way one can be sure that the goods inside are perfectly fine. Their container compared to other is 75 times better and more reliable as their technology is more advanced. The chance of goods getting wasted by the change in the temperature is less than 0.1%. WHO says that 40% of total vaccines are wasted because of deviation of temperature or broken cold chain. This leads to a $2.5 billion worth products being wasted and thrown away each year because of bad transport.

Logistics Industry Problems

Logistics industry is a complex one. Lot of paper works and stuff to be done to make a single shipping. To make a shipping happen between two parties, 200 or more types of paperwork is required or exchanged. Our current system is more expensive to administer a shipment rather than execute the shipment.

The main and primary problem of Logistics industry is it's Centralized. Being centralized it takes more time and cost to make a shipping happen. Not only that it requires 200 paperwork or even to more just because it is centralized. It takes away the most time and cost. Some of the paperwork is:

• Documents of origin
• Material safety sheet
• Airway bill
• Bill of lading
• Transport order
• Customs declaration documents & bills
• Invoices
• Product data sheet 11
• Storage conditions
• Transport conditions
• Multiple service provider billings
• Licenses

The Solution of Smart Containers

The smart Containers solution to the centralized problem is to Decentralize it. Easily said than done but here's how they plan on doing it.

A logistics unit such as parcel or container is mirrored as a virtual product which is to Smart Container a Chip on blockchain infractyre. This chip will be available to the public and at a minimal cost. To this chip many documents can be linked and those documents can be viewed by the relevant parties. (e.g. customs officers, freight forwarders, contractors, shippers, buyers, warehouse workers).

With this ecosystem, it will eliminate any paperwork or if not most of the paperwork. This is will save a lot of time of many people and not only time also cost. After this comes the use of smart contract. By using the power of smart contract, it will be possible to automatically pay the amount in cryptocurrency which the contact was designed for.

Now for security all these information will he available on blockchain and on real time. So if any problems occurs, relevant parties will be able to take action quicky and fast. On the other side some document will be available to the public on blockchain such as ethereum which will be viewable by anyone. And for the data which sensitive, and private it will be on permissioned blockchain. This way Smart Container ecosystem will provide security and privacy.
