DCX Rice has been operational since 2020 and is rapidly changing the way this important foodstuff is transacted on the international market. Rice is integral to food security as half the world’s population depends on rice as a primary source of calories and the grain is the largest import item in the food baskets of many nations.

The platform, with users from over 60 countries, digitalizes rice trading using blockchain distributed ledger technology. Buyers, sellers and service providers connect in a digital environment, efficiently conduct trades and arrange insurance, shipping, inspection and settlement with the assurance of verifiable data and seamless integration. Once a trade is agreed, the platform generates a standardized set of documents including the invoice, bill of lading, inspection certificates, the shipping advice and insurance documents.  A hash is created for each action and stored in the immutable audit log.
