Prodeca takes part in the PROXTERRA project

Under the European territorial cooperation programme POCTEFA, Prodeca is part of the PROXTERRA project, an initiative to boost the sustainable development and competitiveness of agri-food SMEs in Catalonia and the French regions of Ariège and Pyrénées-Orientales.

The project PROXTERRA, led by Creacció with the support of various Catalan and French institutions, has as its central aim to encourage sustainable, local growth in the agri-food sectors by implementing innovative, sustainable solutions. The initiative, running from January 2024 to December 2026, will take a broad look at the supply, demand and logistics of agri-food products through a series of interrelated activities.

Prodeca will play a significant role in the project, taking charge of WP4 on logistics, which will include a SWOT analysis of the territory involved, the creation of logistics micro-platforms and awareness campaigns aimed at end consumers.

The upcoming schedule also includes the Steering Committee meeting in Vic on 18 and 19 April 2024, followed by participation in the Lactium fair, also in Vic, on 20 and 21 April 2024.

With this initiative, Prodeca consolidates its commitment to promoting Catalan agri-food products and to cross-border collaboration, contributing to the region's sustainable economic development and strengthening ties between the players involved in this strategically important project.
