<![CDATA[The leather industry encounters significant challenges in integrating blockchain technology and smart contracts into its complex supply networks. Despite technological advancements, existing supply chain management systems suffer from inefficiencies, opacity, and vulnerabilities to fraud. Blockchain offers promising solutions such as immutable ledgers, decentralized governance, and smart contract automation. However, scalability limitations hinder the efficient handling of high transaction volumes, impacting procurement, production, inventory management, and distribution processes, leading to delays and increased costs. This research aims to address these challenges by exploring innovative approaches, including dual-layer blockchain architectures incorporating sharding and state channels, tailored to the unique needs of the leather industry. By overcoming scalability barriers, the research seeks to unlock the transformative potential of blockchain technology and smart contracts, enhancing transparency, traceability, and efficiency in leather supply chains while ensuring global interoperability and regulatory compliance. Through empirical validation and comparative analysis, this study provides understandings into the practical implementation of blockchain solutions within the leather industry, offering strategic guidance for sustainable supply chain management practices.]]>
