This Guide summarises practical actions to improve resource efficiency and profitability in the fresh potato retail supply chain.

In 2013/14, WRAP worked with the Co-operative Food and its integrated potato growers and packers, Co-operative Farms, to undertake a ‘whole chain pathfinder project’ (case study). Key findings are incorporated into this Guide, alongside wider WRAP and Potato Council (PCL) research findings.
