Abstract

In this paper, we provide a preliminary investigation of the application

of blockchain technology as a tool for decision-making with a sustainability focus

on fashion supply chains.

In the fashion industry, information on various sustainability aspects has been the

focus of business operations. The focus on these aspects can be traced back to the

implementation and control of sustainability among suppliers. Through these

implementation and control phases, selecting the finest suppliers suited to luxury

production could be possible. In this spirit, the blockchain tool adopted for the

textile supply chain could have some advantages, emphasizing transparency and

traceability to benefit the various sustainability aspects. As commonly known, it

is possible to study the potential utilization of blockchain technology as a

decision-making tool for promoting sustainability within companies by following

different methodological approaches. In this vein, in this work, we adopted a

methodological approach that primarily entails the administration of a

questionnaire to a targeted sample of professionals within companies in the

fashion industry.
