【Abstract】Food safety is a vital issue of public and social concern. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, frozen fresh food has become the hardest hit area for the spread of the COVID-19. In response to the opaque information, lack of trust, and difficulty in traceability in the fresh food supply chain, the article proposes blockchain technology to address the problem. This paper defines a blockchain technology use case and a quick reference guide to design a blockchain network for the food industry. It improves transparency throughout the supply chain and helps reconcile the documentation and required data with legislation authorities to import cold chain products to certify the quality of the final product. The fresh food supply chain framework can ensure integrity, authenticity, and supply chain information. This design is of great significance to ensure the traceability of the fresh food supply chain.
