Supply chain does seem as one of the best fits for enterprise private ethereum blockchain. As far as I understand blockchain technology, its mandatory that no party gain more than 50% computation power, otherwise you loose all the trust giving features of blockchain (one party could alter the block chain or create wrong transaction). Hence, if only two companies or one company run a blockchain, you have to trust that they don't fire up some mining nodes and mine blocks which contain false information. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
