A one day workshop is being held in Brisbane to provide insights into how cutting-edge technology can improve fruit and vegetable supply chains to deliver consistent predictable quality through chain intermediaries to customers. The workshop will help participants to:

  • Better understand the conditions your fresh produce is exposed to after leaving the farm
  • Identify practices that might be reducing the quality and value of your produce after harvest
  • Decide how best to handle your consignment when it arrives at the importer to maximise returns
  • Reduce claims
  • Increase cooperation and trust between you the freight forwarder and the importer.

 

Workshop Details:

9am-4pm Wednesday 9 October 2019

Novotel Hotel, 200 Creek Street, Brisbane
