Agrofood
Different mindset vital for agrofood supply chain
Reducing the ecological footprint of logistics for fresh produce, and the transition to a future-proof, sustainable chain, depend critically on a transformation of the mindset. According to Peter Ravensbergen and Arjen Daane from Wageningen Economic Research, digitalisation, greater transparency and stronger alliances are key to success. In this whitepaper, they set out their vision of the agrofood supply chain, now and in the future.
A delicate balancing act
Collaboration is the key success factor for the agrofood supply chain. Working together more improves quality and opens up the way to better service. And the chain becomes more sustainable, too. Digitalisation and modern technologies help to get fresh foods to the customer quickly and reliably. But there is also improvement potential in container handling.
Data insight increases speed and reliability in agrofood logistics
The world is digitalising rapidly, opening up numerous new possibilities and advantages. Especially in the agrofood sector, where fresh products are traded and speed is essential.
Data is available abundantly. As are smart solutions for sharing that data and optimising processes. Practice proves that - with the right tools and the right attitude - gains can be achieved by all chain partners.
