The blockchain market in Middle East & Africa is expected to grow from US$ 199.37 million in 2021 to US$ 7,615.09 million by 2028; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 68.3% from 2021 to 2028. The COVID-19 outbreak has caused severe disruptions in supply systems. A key issue is the shutdown of multiple enterprises due to safety & hygiene concerns and the unprecedented demand for specific products, such as PPE kits and medical supplies. Due to the rising demand for these products, various users are forced to get supplies from unknown origins or quality. Long supply chains provide tremendous ambiguity, making it difficult to quantify and plan the complete supply chain. The ideal solution for supply chains is blockchain, which can connect all stakeholders into a single supply chain network; while retaining transparency and safely breaking down data silos. As a result, the supply chain process has many blockchain setups. Blockchain speeds up the validation process by eliminating third-party delegates and inherent delays in handling and processing operations. The benefits include faster handling and processing time, cheaper costs, decreased operational risks, and speedier settlements for all parties involved.

The Middle East & Africa blockchain market is majorly affected by the disruptions in the national and international supply chains. The shutdown of country borders has disturbed the supply chain of several components and parts required in retail & BFSI industries. Various governments and regulatory agencies compelled public and private businesses to adopt new teleworking and social distance practices due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, digital business practices and the use of email with home servers have become the new business continuity plan for numerous enterprises. Individuals are increasingly tempted to adopt blockchain due to the growing use of mobile devices and the internet. Organizations have become more vulnerable to privacy concerns as a result of these shifting patterns and scattered IT architectures, thereby fueling demand for blockchain solutions.
