Strategies and approaches for the successful introduction of organic food in the local authority catering sector.


Project aim:

The aim of the project is to update the guidelines 'More organic in local authorities', which have been in existence since 2017. Ecozept and its partners are adapting the content in line with changes in administrative and funding legislation and are providing up-to-date examples of good practice from different areas of local authority catering.

Activities of ECOZEPT:

Ecozept is leading this project in cooperation with FiBL Projekte GmbH and Prof Dr Zeiss. In addition to the purely editorial revision, the project will focus on the following activities: comparison and evaluation of existing guidelines, legal expertise on selected topics such as the new German regulation on organic catering or public procurement law, as well as research and preparation of current best practice examples from the German Organic Cities Network.

Client:

Department for Climate and Environmental Protection of Munich

The economic importance of direct sales (in organic production) WiBiDi

Direct sales are an important trade sector in Germany. Around 2,45 billion euros is spent each year on weekly markets and directly from farmers alone. However, there is yet no scientific data on the importance of direct marketing of organic products for both farmers and the national economy. The main aim of this project is therefore to evaluate the national and regional economic importance of direct marketing of organic products in Germany, and to elaborate a method which allows regular updates in statistical data. Simultaneously, the collected data should enable to develop economic indicators of marketing channels such as market stalls, vending machines or mail order.
