Abstract

One of the most significant challenges in today's retail market is the widespread counterfeiting of products. Counterfeit products are inferior replicas of authentic brand names. Various techniques have been implemented at different times to tackle the issue of counterfeit products, including RFID tags, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and product identification systems. But these methods have disadvantages such as product id can copy from a genuine product to a fake product, artificial intelligence and machine learning need high computational power to do operations, and many more methods adopted but a fulfilled method has not been developed. In this project, we have attempted to enhance the identification of counterfeit goods using blockchain technology. Our approach involves maintaining the supply chain of products at each stage of the product's journey to a new party, facilitated by a unique product identifier. Blockchain helps us to store the supply chain of products as a blockchain-based system makes a decentralized system and one of the main advantages of blockchain is that if the data is recorded in the system then nobody can change it at any cost so it makes our data more secure and protected from the third parties
