Abstract – Our project addresses the pervasive threat of counterfeiting in the global market by introducing an advanced system. This system offers comprehensive solutions for both manufacturers and consumers. At its core is a meticulous registration and authentication process for manufacturers, providing access to a robust product management platform. Unique QR codes are generated using secure techniques and linked to detailed product information stored in a secure database. Consumers authenticate to access the system and can swiftly verify product authenticity by scanning QR codes with their smartphones. The system instantly cross-references scanned codes with manufacturer-stored data in smart contracts, delivering immediate authenticity notifications. Utilizing QR code technology linked to a blockchain enhances product tracking and encourages customer engagement, thereby boosting sales. Overall, this multifaceted system offers numerous benefits, including improved consumer safety, efficient product tracking, legal recourse against counterfeiters, cost savings for manufacturers, and heightened customer satisfaction. Through its integrated features, our system aims to revolutionize the fight against counterfeit products, fostering a safer and more dependable marketplace for all stakeholders.
