I see more than one element in common with blockchain … the right part of the delivery note seems a tx!
M6 = block
Order = tx hash
Qr code for the address
(that is below).

Maybe a private company could earn  Smiley from public innovation?
Of course they use a private "blockchain", it's called a database (actually probably multiple databases). All of those numbers and letters just let them identify stuff quickly and efficiently. They don't actually use a blockchain since a centralized database is vastly more efficient than a blockchain. They have no use for a blockchain anyways.
