Original title

Metaanalyse zu Erfolgsbedingungen für die Umstellung oder Ausweitung von Bio in der Außer-Haus-Verpflegung und Status-quo-Analyse der regionalen Beraterstrukturen

Abstract

Germany's Organic Strategy 2030 aims to increase the share of organic food in out-of-home catering. The project examines how catering institutions and businesses can be better supported in introducing and maintaining the use of organic food. A meta-analysis and focus group discussions will identify success factors and barriers. Structured desk research and interviews with experts will map advisory services across Germany and identify regional gaps. The project will also examine kitchen operators' needs and expectations regarding advice. The combined findings will inform recommendations for policymakers, public authorities and advisory organisations to further develop support services tailored to operators' needs.
