April 2014 – NCGT project researchers and student teams from the NC State graduate-level business course “Local Foods Supply Chains” met with NCGT partners to present their work on April 22 at the JC Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh.
Among the presentations, five student teams and two supply chain scholars offered potential solutions to aggregation and distribution challenges of selling local products, including seafood. Presentations are available on the NCGT website, and final student team reports will be posted by the end of May.
NCGT will continue to support student research teams in the 2014-2015 academic year. Contact Rebecca Dunning for more information and how you can be involved.
