One of the main challenges facing modern supply chains is access to data, which is crucial for effective decision-making. This data is not always available as supply chains lack transparency due to their sheer size and other complexities. As a result, many organisations are faced with an assortment of manual and digital systems that effectively trap information within functional silos, hampering the decision-making process by providing an incomplete picture.
The partnership between Fetch.ai and LiquidChefs aims to utilize Fetch.ai’s Autonomous Economic Agents integrated with its Search and Discovery Framework to build local and transparent supply chains, allowing LiquidChefs to search and connect with any sustainable supplier in its immediate vicinity. At launch, it will support a select number of suppliers including Bäckerei-Konditorei-Café Weber, BierVision Monstein AG, Black Peak Brauerei, Adank Davos AG, and Liberty Coffee Roasters.
By digitalising and automating the LiquidChefs supply chain, Fetch.ai infrastructure will create a decentralised supply chain marketplace. This marketplace connects buyers and suppliers digital agents, in real time, to support dynamic, scalable, multi-agent supply chains. This will allow individuals, organisations and assets to be represented as digital agents which work autonomously based on the users’ needs and preferences, such as finding local and sustainable suppliers. The decentralized supply chain marketplace will be showcased at the Davos World Economic Forum in 2022.
