This paper presents a finding from a case study of the convenience store system in Japan. Based upon two theories, strategic network theory and postponement-speculation theory, the evolutionary process of the supply chain management in the convenience store system is explained. Seven Eleven Japan, which is one of the large convenience store chains, has been developing its advanced system for several merchandise categories. This system is beyond the boundary of convenience store chains. The synchronization of production and distribution is persistently being aimed under the condition of the instantaneous consumption.

Current supply chain methods are having difficulties in resolving problems arising from the lack of trust in supply chains. The root reason lies in two challenges brought to the traditional mechanism: self-interests of supply chain members and information asymmetry in production processes. Blockchain is a promising technology to address these problems. The key objective of this paper is to present qualitative analysis for blockchain in supply chain as the decision-making framework to implement this new technology. The analysis method used Val IT business case framework, validated by the expert judgements. The further study needs to be elaborated by either the existing organization that use blockchain or assessment by the organization that will use blockchain to improve their supply chain management.
