Studies

Project aim:
We supported Nîmes Métropole which wished to study the opportunities for the development of local short supply chains with regard to the specificities of its territory. One of the targets identified as an opportunity for the Gard farms is the commercial cathering and the food industry. The ultimate objective of this mission is, through the establishment of a working group, to make proposals for actions to develop local short supply chains.

Activities of ECOZEPT:
We organised and led a working group with the partners involved or likely to be involved in the development of short supply chains in commercial catering in order to
- Express the concerns of operators about the obstacles encountered, constraints, expectations and levers in terms of local short supply chains,
- Encourage exchanges between the stakeholders on this topic,
- Share the expertise and experiences of the actors involved,
- Co-develop an action plan on this theme with the actors concerned,
- To encourage the involvement of stakeholders in the future action plan and facilitate the appropriation of the actions to be developed

Client:
Nîmes Metropole

Bio Regio Management in Munich 2

Munich's ‘Haus der Kost’ (House of Food), the Competence Centre for Sustainable Nutrition which opened in April 2024, has set itself the goal of increasing the proportion of organic food in out-of-home catering in the city of Munich. To this end, organic regional market structures are to be identified and strengthened and/or established and stabilised. In order to fulfil these tasks, a coordination office ‘Bio-Regio-Management für Lebensmittel in der Außer-Haus-Verpflegung’ (Management of regional organic food in the out-of-home catering) was created, which Ecozept and its subcontractors will continue to support for a further two years.

TRUECOST

True cost or full cost accounting is a powerful new tool to evaluate the sustainability of agriculture and food systems. The approach allows to measure external costs generated by the food system and to reflect upon ways to integrate these costs into the everyday economy. The aim of the project is to apply and to complete the methods that are developed world-wide in this domain in Switzerland.
