The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) just released its guide on Short Food Supply Chains (SFSCs).
The new UNIDO publication, titled “Short Food Supply Chains for promoting Local Food on Local Markets”, by Giovanni Belletti and Andrea Marescotti, gives an insight over the main typologies of SFSCs initiatives and discusses their potential benefits and drawbacks. The ultimate goal is to raise consciousness on the potential of SFSCs initiatives for achieving local development, better market access to smallholders, and higher food quality to consumers, and to discuss how these initiatives may be developed in a sustainable way, allowing for higher resilience in front of global market disruption.
