Counterfeit goods have become increasingly important in the creation of products in recent years. The companies' sales and profit are impacted by this phenomenon. Product counterfeiting is prevented by using a functional block chain technology, which guarantees the identification of genuine products along the supply chain. By employing block chain technology, customers may reliably determine the product's origins without depending on reliable third parties. Any application that makes use of block chain technology as its foundational technology guarantees "tamper-resistant" data content. Considering that a block chain is a distributed, decentralized, digital ledger that keeps track of public transaction records called blocks across numerous databases and networks. The problem of product counterfeiting has been addressed in the past by the development of several techniques. The most popular methods include RFID tags, artificial intelligence, and systems based on QR codes. However, there were a few issues with each of them: artificial intelligence uses CNN and machine learning, which are computationally intensive; a QR code can be copied from a legitimate product and used on a phony one, and some other issues. By tracking the origins of the supply chain, this research aims to improve the detection of counterfeit items. This is made feasible by blockchain technology, which ensures the identification and tracking of authentic products across the supply chain. Everything in a blockchain-based system is decentralized and available to multiple parties at once.
