The Blockchain Supply Chain Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 81.7% over the forecast period 2020 to 2025

A growing requirement for supply chain transparency and surging demand for heightened security of supply chain transactions are significant growth factors for the market.

During a 2019 survey by Kenco Group, 40% of supply chain leaders stated they intend to invest in blockchain technologies. In that same survey, 46% of respondents revealed that they plan to invest in sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT). As per the same source, in 2019, supply chain leaders show a greater willingness to take a risk on new technologies, as 46% of respondents say they are willing to spend 10-24% more on innovation, up from 24% in 2018 and 29% in 2017.

This happens to be a significant factor leading to opportunities for the blockchain market in supply chain management.
