Project aim:
The Canton of Vaud in French-speaking Switzerland surrounds the north and east of Lake Geneva and encompasses towns and villages in the densely populated plain, as well as medium and high mountainous rural areas. In this highly contrasted territory, the canton's administration has made the supply of local products for collective catering one of its major objectives.

Activities of ECOZEPT:
Ecozept and Delphine Ducoeurjoly were commissioned to build and lay the foundations for an operation to develop local supply chains for public collective catering sites: a multi-level survey of political, economic and collective catering stakeholders was conducted and a concept for the integration of Vaud products into collective catering was developed. All the elements for practical implementation were in place - we recommended, among other things, targeted support for pilot sites and stimulation of supply at the level of Vaud production.

Client:
Canton of Vaud
