Participatory supply chains

For Valdibella, farmers and consumers are the key players in the food supply chain. We build direct and transparent relationships that restore value to agricultural work and food.

Farmers and consumers at the center

The processing, logistics, and distribution phases are important and perfectly integrated, but they remain a service to the agricultural process.
This perspective restores centrality to those who produce and those who choose food, enabling a more informed relationship with agriculture.

We are committed to building participatory supply chains and fostering the creation of a community that shares and supports our agricultural project.

Building participatory supply chains

Participatory supply chains allow for:

Recognizing the origin of food
Valuing the work of farmers
Making consumers an active part of the food system

We collaborate with organizations that share the same vision:

Participatory distribution cooperatives
Fair Trade
GAS (Solidarity Purchasing Groups)
Food Coop

For Valdibella, shared supply chains are living relationships, built over time with entities that share the same values.
