Shipping firm Zim took the decision to roll out its blockchain for electronic bills of lading (eBLs) following a successful trial last year, TradeWinds reports.

Zim believes that using the blockchain to digitize shipping documents will reduce time, complexity, and operating costs for everyone involved in making a container ship get from A-to-B.

It might just be me, but logistics and shipping seems to be actually making something of the blockchain. Indeed, the blockchains might be private and permissioned, but the industry seems to be developing working use cases of the technology that bring benefits for those involved.
If private blockchains help make the process a bit more efficient, I guess it’s okay that the platform is only decentralized in part.
