Avignon FoodSHIFT Accelerator Lab is exploring the capacity of public procurement to be a driver for hyperlocal retail and reduction of food waste. It will promote the use of a quality label to valorise and improve consumer access to local products while expanding access to local, fresh and healthy food for a larger scope of people.
The Lab aims to increase the amount of local (and organic) food in school canteens, adapting meal composition to fresh products and more plant based diets as well as focusing on adapting healthy meals to children’s tastes to avoid waste.
