Abstract. With the incredible growth of internet shopping over the last years, the delivery sector has gained increasing importance between existing economies, and the same has happened with the pressure, exigencies and expectations from consumers towards home delivery schemes. It is mainly because of this that it is important to pursuit the development of a delivery system that is consistent with this continuous rise of online commerce, while at the same time avoiding the possible negative effects caused by freight transports. It is under this context that the blockchain technology is to be analyzed. Being widely examined and implemented in the finance field, this technology shows great potential for its exploitation within different areas, including logistics.
