Advisinar – November 2026 – Fruit and vegetables: the easy-going alternative for SFSCs?
Organised by COREnet in collaboration with EU4Advice , this Advisinar will look at the strategies fruit and vegetable growers can use to position themselves in a highly competitive market, from subscription box schemes to processing and new direct sales concepts. Drawing on practical examples from Austria, Sweden and Belgium, it will show how moving further along the value chain can lead to new sources of income and better margins.
