 **The Short Chain Cooperation aims to efficiently and sustainably distribute local fresh produce, with BUas helping to align digital systems and improve transport planning.**

### What was the goal?

The Korte Keten collaboration - an initiative of seven logistics and food companies in Midden-Brabant - aims to distribute local fresh produce efficiently and sustainably. Currently in its early start-up phase, the initiative has yet to establish significant joint transport arrangements, presenting an opportunity for BUas to develop the supply chain step by step from the ground up.

### What method was employed?

BUas will align the core systems and digitalisation levels across the various short-chain businesses, focusing on smart automation and transport planning for the joint vehicles.

### What is the timeline of this project?

1 February 2024 - 31 December 2027

### Who are our main collaborating partners?

BUas collaborates with De Smaak van Hier BV, Coöperatie Brabants Streekgoed (13 agrarische leden), Goei Eete, The Food Directors, BEUKK

### Who are our funding partners?

Ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken en Koninkrijksrelaties, Provincie Noord-Brabant, Gemeente Tilburg
