In Jan. 2020, Logistics Union Chain, a blockchain solution for automobile logistics, launched cooperation with Chang’an Ford and Minsheng APLL Logistics, largely increasing the financing amount and expanding its influence.
Wanxiang Charity Trust Account Management Platform based on blockchain demonstrated its advantages in optimizing donation process at the beginning of 2020 when COVID-19 pervaded in China. One of our clients donated 5 million RMB (about 772,000 US Dollars) to provide meals for medical workers in Wuhan, the epicenter of the virus.
By the end of 2020, our Supply Chain Finance Platform, a blockchain-based platform that empowers financial institutions, core enterprises and small and medium sized suppliers, had financed almost 800 million RMB (about 124 US Dollars) for our clients. Besides, this platform has recently been integrated with TradeTrust, a digital global trade platform of Singapore Info-communications Media Development Authority, marking Wanxiang Blockchain’s marching into cross-border trade and finance.

This platform builds a trusted database for all players in the beef rearing process. Based on the trusted data, financial institutions can have a better understanding of the financial and operational situations of the farms so as to provide financial services to the farms at lower risks. This also helps farms to get an easier access to financial and insurance support.
