REEValue hosts European experts for first agrifoods & logistics workshops


EWA & MBB launched their first joint workshop for the REEValue project, titled “Unlocking Sustainable Cost Savings Solutions”. Experts from abroad travelled to Malta to deliver two days of training for agrifoods manufacturing and logistics companies. The competitiveness of these sectors relies on coordination and increases in efficiency across value chains. Value chains are the focus of the REEValue, a LIFE-funded project which started earlier this year and runs until 2026. Through value chain collaborations, businesses are able to unlock opportunities which might not be possible when operating in silos. Any business in the relevant sectors is invited to participate in the project and benefit from the consultancy services offered by the consortium, which will be covered by the EU.

The event’s agenda entailed presentations from the University of Brescia and the Irish logistics consultancy AEMS. Renowned icecream manufacturing company, Sammontana, as well as one of their suppliers, EPTA, also presented information about how they have increased efficiency by working together. Serving as best practice case studies, they served as a particularly engaging case study for local icecream and food manufacturers who participated in the event. With the exception of EPTA, all the speakers form part of the REEValue consortium, and their offer of support and guidance to Maltese businesses is open and ongoing until the project ends. Furthermore, MBB Senior Projects Executive Timothy Alden presented an overview of funding instruments available to local businesses. MBB is offering support to companies to apply for these grants as part of the project.

Moving forward, further workshops will be organised in Ireland and Portugal by partners in the consortium, as well as in Malta late next year. Businesses interested in further information about the project and how they stand to benefit are invited to get in contact with MBB at info@mbb.org.mt
