For the reasonable processes of transportation and logistics in the supply chain, the sharing of the transaction is very crucial. The current supply chain management has several shortcomings in security and trust issues in the transaction process. Therefore, information is shared on paper-based and a semi digitalizes way. In this paper, we analyze a trust issue in supply chain and design a new propose scheme based on blockchain technology for resolving the problem in the supply chain and automate the whole payment process through a smart contract.
