Mi volt a megoldott kihívás/probléma?

The region and the department have launched an initiative to promote local sourcing in school canteens, rather than importing products, with the aim of supporting local agricultural development. This approach benefits the community by boosting the local economy and reducing dependence on imports. For farmers, the procurement platform offers several advantages. It allows them to sell large volumes of products (15 million meals per year), providing a significant market for their production. Továbbá, logistics are simplified as the platform collects products directly from farmers, avoiding trips to Rungis (main wholesale market). Contracts with public markets are secured for periods ranging from 1 nak nek 4 évek, providing some stability to participating farmers.

Hogyan oldotta meg a problémát?

Initially launched by a department, a project aiming to promote local sourcing for school canteens was expanded after involving the region. Several studies were conducted successively to assess the feasibility, profitability, and sizing of the project, as well as to identify potential productions suitable for the Île-de-France region and adjust public markets accordingly, in collaboration with agricultural chambers and taking into account feedback from farmers. The process also involved building the procurement platform and issuing corresponding public contracts. Farmers were trained by agricultural chambers to answer to public markets. At this stage, the focus is on implementing the project, particularly by finalizing the construction of the platform and transitioning to local production and distribution for school canteens.
