Service: DOGANA 4.0

Responsible organisation: Agenzia delle Dogane (Governmental)

The Customs Agency is extensively investigating blockchain technology, as part of a process of improvement and continuous innovation that has seen the Customs switch to an " eCustoms " model (from paper to digital) and from this to an idea of Customs 4.0, powered by the most innovative technologies quai IoT, AI and blockchain. The concrete project presented concerns a drink of ancient tradition, the Genepì, a herbal liqueur typical of Piedmont: everything from its production to bottling is now replicated on blockchain (with a QR code as a vehicle for communication to the consumer ) while for the future the information chain is expected to be extended to the transport phase. The project was conducted in collaboration with the technological partner Sogei, with open source products and on Ethereum protocol.
