WCT Empowers Nestle's Bottled Beverage Supply Chain Collaboration and Product Traceability
In 2023, Nestle applied WCT technology to the supply chain of bottled water, coffee beverages, and other products, achieving seamless data flow and collaboration from raw material procurement, production processing, logistics distribution to terminal sales. The chain records information about raw material suppliers (such as coffee bean origin, packaging material source), filling parameters in production workshops (such as liquid level control, cap torque), logistics transportation trajectories, and temperature and humidity. Consumers can scan the QR code on the bottle to view product traceability information. Nestle collaborates with distributors on inventory data on-chain for replenishment, and payments are settled using WCT to avoid payment period risks. In 2024, this system will cover 90% of Nestle's bottled products, reducing supply chain replenishment response time by 55%, decreasing product quality complaint rates by 89%, and increasing consumer brand loyalty by 40%, further consolidating Nestle's leading position in the global beverage market.
