Description

Institutional food systems in schools, hospitals, and universities often reflect the negative aspects of the industrialized food model. These systems frequently rely on long supply chains that lead to environmental and social challenges, while also facing issues with market concentration in production and distribution. This book examines how these large-scale purchasers can change this dynamic. It explores how non-profit organizations, government agencies, university research institutes, and activists are working with institutions to test more ethical and sustainable methods. By understanding how to leverage massive purchasing power, these entities can help drive real changes within the broader food system. This resource provides a look at the current state of institutional food procurement and the emerging movements working to create a better, more sustainable future for food consumption and distribution.

Key Features

Examines the impact of long food supply chains and their environmental and social consequences on institutional food quality.

Explores the relationship between market concentration in food production and its effects on institutional purchasing.

Details how non-profit organizations and activists partner with institutions to experiment with ethical food models.

Provides insight into how government agencies and research institutes drive changes in food procurement systems.
