As a Council member, Mondel\u0113z leverages Hedera to modernize supply chain management and create more engaging, transparent customer experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consumer packaged goods companies face mounting challenges\u2014from volatile shopping behavior to increasingly complex supply chains and the need for more transparent, efficient payments. For Mondel\u0113z these pressures were compounded by legacy customer service processes reliant on paper checks, coupons, and vouchers, which are prone to inefficiencies, fraud, and slow resolution times. In the U.S. alone, coupon fraud is estimated to cost companies over $100 million annually, with 90% of digital coupons now redeemed via smartphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pioneering new ways to connect with customers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To address these challenges, Mondel\u0113z partnered with SKUx to implement a phased rollout of Hedera-powered solutions that enable secure, near real-time digital payments. Using Hedera, the company can publicly map payment transactions to the network, creating immutable, tamper-proof records while streamlining the redemption process for consumers. This approach not only reduces the risk of fraud but also enhances trust by providing transparent, verifiable proof of every transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The integration marks the first real-world public adoption of DLT for tracking both supply chain activity and digital payments in the consumer packaged goods sector. With Hedera\u2019s high throughput, predictable fees, and carbon-negative operations, Mondel\u0113z can scale these capabilities globally, supporting faster response times, improved customer satisfaction, and a more resilient value chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By embracing web3 technologies, Mondel\u0113z is positioning itself at the forefront of digital innovation in the food industry. Through its work with Hedera and SKUx, the company is delivering a new standard for transparency, security, and engagement\u2014showcasing how blockchain can solve real-world challenges while unlocking new opportunities for consumer loyalty and operational efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Hedera<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mondel\u0113z was drawn to Hedera&#8217;s technical capabilities, as the network has achieved over 10,000 transactions per second with low-latency finality in seconds\u2014critical for a global operation spanning 80+ countries. Additionally, Hedera&#8217;s governance model, where Council members run network nodes and approve technology updates, ensures that only trusted, vetted organizations manage critical infrastructure, providing the enterprise-level security and credibility Mondel\u0113z requires.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5959,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"content-type":""},"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5057","case-study","type-case-study","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!--
