NL: Opportunities for online market fruits and vegetables

The online market for fruits and vegetables is lagging behind compared to the development of other sectors. In 2015 and 2016, the project ‘Fresh <Online> Pack’ has therefore examined the opportunities (and obstacles) for the online market for the fruits and vegetables sector.
They did research on the desires of consumers and checked how selling fresh products online influences matters like packaging, product quality and distribution. The result is a number of conditions (do's and don'ts), that the online fresh chain has to comply with, ranked according to the categories market, supply chain, product, and packaging (News Item Topsector Tuinbouw & Uitgangsmaterialen, 27 November 2017).
