The thesis aim was to have a deep learning about fashion supply chain. It studied closely how the traditional supply chain and fashion supply chain operates. Supply chain plays a vital role in the effective operation of a company. To achieve an effective supply chain, it is important to have a flow of information among many players in the supply chain.
The theoretical framewok was built through a review from books, journals, articles giving a concept of traditional fashion supply chain, transparent supply chain and blockchain technology application in fashion supply chain.
Qualitative research method was applied in this thesis. Case study of two
companies Patagonia and Provenance were conducted to illustrate the difference between companies using blockchain and not using blockchain to build their transparent supply chain.
The findings showed that it is possible to use blockchain to build a transparent supply chain. However, it would take a longer period to apply to fashion business.
