ASSOCIATION DE L’AVICULTURE, DE L’INDUSTRIE ET DU COMMERCE DE VOLAILLES DANS LES PAYS DE L’UNION EUROPEENNE (AVEC)

Partner general expertise: AVEC is the voice of the European poultry meat sector. It facilitates communication and exchange between international organisations and decision-makers, and focuses on key areas like animal health and welfare, food safety and quality, trade and sustainable development. AVEC has 19 members in 17 countries.

Partner role: AVEC is part of the case study for meat (poultry). We provide insight in and data on the marketing standards used in the poultry sector in Europe (EU/national/private schemes). We would like to analyse the impact of the downgraded products from a food waste point of view because they do not fulfill the standards or market access requirements as well as propose alternatives to reduce the food waste and valorise the products in question.
