Purpose and goal
We will do an experiment on a limited scale, with a focus on local food processing and preservation, where we test an innovative way to share production resources, competences and channels, make use of local raw materials, create tasty unique ready-to-eat products with a long shelf life without the need for refrigeration or freezing in circular packaging solutions and then take place in local shops delicacy shelves and in people´s minds and stomachs. We will investigate how a cooperative business logic can be implemented and used as leverage for more sustainable local food systems.
