This study investigates the integration of blockchain technology into the food supply chain within the restaurant industry. It focuses on how blockchain can be applied to enhance transparency and trust in tracking food sources, ultimately impacting customer satisfactionThis research contributes novel insights to the field of technology innovation in the hospitality industry. It extends the understanding of signaling theory by exploring how blockchain technology can serve as a tool for signal transmission in restaurant food supply chains.Hao, Fei & Guo, Yueming & Zhang, Chen & Chon, Kaye.

We evaluated the hypotheses in the structural model based on path coefficients, t-values, and p-values. The hypotheses were tested for main effects using the bootstrapping 5000 procedure in Smart PLS 4 (Nisar et al., 2021). As shown in Table 1, all hypotheses (H1-H6) were supported by the critical ratio evaluation (t > 1.645; P < 0.05). Our results show that the adoption of blockchain significantly increases traceability (H1, =0.536, t=4.756, p=0.000) and trust (H2, =0.602, t=5.773, p=0.000) compared to not adopting it. Both food traceability and trust have a significantly positive relationship with perceived food safety (H3a, =0.347, t=2.964, p=0.003; and H3b, =0.527, t=5.090, p=0.000), quality (H4a, =0.341, t=3.664, p=0.000; and H4b, =0.554, t=6.572, p=0.000), and naturalness (H5a, =0.496, t=5.819, p=0.000; and H5b, =0.363, t=4.054, p=0.000). Additionally, perceived food safety (H6a, =0.320, t=2.303, p=0.021), quality (H6b, =0.398, t=3.617, p=0.000), and naturalness (H6c, =0.215, t=2
