Abstract	Supply chain management faces persistent challenges such as inefficiencies, poor coordination, and lack of transparency, with product counterfeiting emerging as a critical threat. Counterfeit goods, often indistinguishable from genuine products, undermine brand integrity and consumer trust. While existing solutions like RFID tags, AI-based detection, and QR codes offer some protection, they suffer from significant drawbacks—QR codes can be duplicated, and AI methods like CNNs require heavy computational resources. To address these limitations, this project proposes a blockchain-based system for secure product authentication and supply chain traceability. Blockchain technology provides a decentralized, tamper-proof ledger that records every transaction and movement of a product, ensuring transparency and immutability. Since data modification requires consensus across the network, the system offers robust protection against fraud and unauthorized alterations. By enabling real-time verification of a product’s origin and journey, stakeholders can effectively identify and eliminate counterfeit items. Additionally, the decentralized nature of blockchain facilitates seamless data sharing among multiple parties, enhancing supply chain coordination without compromising security. This paper explores the implementation of blockchain for counterfeit detection, demonstrating its advantages over traditional methods in terms of reliability, scalability, and resistance to manipulation. The proposed solution not only mitigates counterfeit risks but also improves overall supply chain efficiency by fostering trust and accountability among manufacturers, distributors, and consumers. Ultimately, this research highlights blockchain’s potential to revolutionize anti-counterfeiting measures while addressing key supply chain vulnerabilities.
