[Save the date] Innovative approaches to local food processing

As part of the European FOX project - Food processing in a Box, the CTCPA is organizing a half-day event on October 24, 2023 at its Avignon site on the theme of innovative approaches to processing local food products.

The CTCPA is taking part in the FOX (Innovative down-scaled Food processing in a boX) project, which aims to stimulate short circuits for fruit and vegetable-based products by developing innovative technologies for gentle processing. At its Avignon site, the CTCPA has developed specifications for the implementation of a mobile container for production of^4th range products in recyclable or bio-sourced packaging for optimum preservation, close to the farms.
