History
At the beginning of 2015 TE Ltd. (Vietnam) with Erba Ltd. (Hungary) began the development of the TE-FOOD project, with the support of the government of Ho Chi Minh. Their task was to implement a system of full tracking of pork trade. The pilot launch of the system took place in the third quarter of 2016, and by the end of the year the number of companies from South Vietnam, which joined TE-FOOD, reached 6 thousand. The technologies proved to be effective, so since the beginning of 2017, work has been carried out to expand the market coverage.
In September 2017, 12 thousand pigs, 200 thousand chickens and 2 million eggs were controlled daily in TE-FOOD. In 2018, in addition to the tokenization of the platform and the ICO, it is planned to enter international markets and attract companies engaged in the cultivation and sale of cattle, fish, seafood and, possibly, vegetables.
