Transforming Food Systems for a Sustainable Future
Driving socially just transitions through place-based food procurement innovations
Place-based approaches to sustainable food supply chains

Place-based public sector food procurement, through its significant buying power, is increasingly recognised as having the unmet potential to drive changes towards more inclusive, sustainable and healthy food systems.
Addressing this challenge, Procurement for Good is a £1.9 million project funded by the Economic and Social Research Council that critically examines the conditions required for more sustainably produced food to be served on the public plate in the UK.
Working with food hubs, smaller scale producers and public sector buyers, the project aims to expand place-based public food procurement networks through collaborative practices, digital innovation and policy recommendations.
