H. van Luijk CEO Van Nature Growers & Chairman Frug I Com #INTERNATIONAL #STANDARDS Technology changed the production of our greenhouse vegetables dramatically. We went from consumer to producer of energy and we moved from small-scale, low-tech companies to large high-tech growers. The next generation of disruptive technology is now reaching our customers and markets. This will have an enormous impact, from point-of-sale to greenhouse. It is therefore essential that we organise our information exchange and standards in an international context. This is not only big data but also a big challenge.

L.Hermans ChairmanTopsector Tuinbouw & Uitgangsmaterialen #TALENTGAP I agree with the statement of Gardner that “Digital business incompetence� will cause a quarter of businesses to lose competitive ranking. Perhaps this rings even more true for the high-tech Horticulture & Propagation Starting Materials sector. Digitally competent staff is essential for our industry. It is our challenge to find frontrunners on the edge of both the world of horticulture and ICT.

CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 3rd edition of the EU FRESH INFO Forum & Roundtables at the SS Rotterdam. It is my pleasure to be your host in this conference on how information management and disruptive information technology is CHANGING THE GAME in fresh produce, supply and cultivation. The world is changing rapidly due to the impact that the Fourth Industrial Revolution has on all sectors of the economic arena ; including fresh produce. We have taxi companies without cabs (Uber), hotel chains without hotels (AirBNB), restaurants without kitchens (Thuisbezorgd) and more and more retailers without a store (Ocada, PicNic). But also warehouses without people (robots), employees without feet (drones) and customer cards (bigdata) that can predict pregnancy (Target). We are right in the

globe in improving standardisation of data and directly connecting them to our industry leaders. On the other hand, we focus on a program where participants can learn and take home their learnings, or at least to become AWARE----AND KNOW LITTLE BIT MORE‌. On behalf of Frug I Com, the Dutch foundation platform chain information of the Fresh Produce Centre, and our partners GS1 in Europe and International Federation for Produce Standards, IFPS, I wish you an informative and inspiring event. Up to the next level in Fresh Produce.

Harrij Schmeitz Programme manager, Frug I Com

middle of a changing game in which we can identify four major issues for our industry: Information Management & Technology in the boardroom The first issue, in my opinion, is that information(technology) should be on the table of the boardrooms of the fresh produce industry. The principle of UNAWARE-UNKNOWN results in many important ICT developments not being on the strategic agenda of many companies. The right staff with the right skills The second issue is that we need a new type of staff with completely different skills to manage the change that is needed and to get the best out of the new technologies for our industry. Delivering detailed data for an efficient and effective supply chain For the supply chain, more and more product data is needed, including the information needed for the online consumer, . Here, data must always be right: 98% accuracy is not good enough anymore because for a robot, this means 100% wrong. Managing crop data For the sake of food safety, food security, phytosanitary issues, durable concepts, tracking & tracing etc., our products need to become a combination of a physical product and data that belong to it on where the product is grown, which chemicals and minerals were used, etc. We need to organise this information flow from the source through the supply chain to the consumer. In this 3rd EU FRESH INFO Forum & Roundtables, we strived to set up a high-level program with a special focus on the need for international networking, bringing together all the initiatives around the 11

Sharing of compliance data in fresh chains made easy Handling compliance data in the international chains of fresh produce can be a cumbersome challenge, with a lot of paper work or at best repeated data entry. By designing and testing a platform for sharing compliance data the FarmDigital project has shown that these problems can be solved. Entrepreneurs active in the agricultural sector spend more and more of their time registering and publishing all kinds of data. The government, certification bodies, banks, clients, retail sector and consumers all want to have more insight in how safe and sustainable their food is. The majority of this data is still paper-based, spread over different systems and difficult to exchange between the people who want to access it. FarmDigital is an action research programme which works towards a situation in which compliance data only needs to be entered once and can be shared easily. The focus is on standardising data and the development and implementation of an independent, digital platform.

2% incorrect = 100% wrong GS1 Netherlands Interview: Kees de Kat (Royal Fruitmasters) on data quality: ‘ 2% incorrect means 100% wrong’

Delivering correct product information presents a number of significant challenges for the fresh produce sector such as high circulation speed, a wide variety of products and the large number of mutations in product information. Nevertheless, it is this very sector that has become aware of the importance of data quality. Kees de Kat, CEO of Royal Fruitmasters: “We cannot afford to make any mistakes”. Kees de Kat is CEO at Royal Fruitmasters, a cooperation that processes and markets 200 million kilo of Dutch fruit - both in and outside of the Netherlands. In his previous role, he was responsible for buying and merchandising at retailer Super de Boer, so he knows his way around in the world of retail. “Product information leads to maximum efficiency in the entire chain. Or to put it differently: incorrect information leads to unnecessary costs of failure. In addition, product information is of crucial importance for realizing maximum relevant transparency. In a digitalizing world, accurate information is needed for people to trust the product.” In the fresh produce industry, product information requires extra care. “We deliver a natural product, not a standard factory product. For the latter, product specifications are relatively easy to determine, but this is not the case with fresh produce. Nature decides the quality of a product and also the grower’s assessment plays an important role. Our challenge lies in turning these variables into relevant data.”

Relevant for the entire chain

As De Kat indicated, exchange of product information is relevant for the entire chain. The importance for those links at the end of the chain is irrefutable. “In retail, efficiency plays a crucial role. When you have 20.000 products within your product range, you have to think of clever ways to limit human error. Imagine a retailer and a brewer launching a discount campaign together. One tiny deviation in crate measurements could lead to the need for several extra trucks.” In the fresh produce sector, product information plays an important part at the beginning of the chain. For instance, the developments in precision farming allow us to determine

how many and which nutrients to use for each cauliflower. With visual techniques, fruit growers can determine which appels should be picked and which ones should continue to ripen. “When the impact of technology increases, so does the importance of data. Mind you, I am referring to relevant data: data that leads to increased efficiency or more value for all links in the chain.”

Not a Dutch affair

De Kat underlines the statement that data quality is just as important as product quality. “Just look at the importance of information on nutritional value or allergies. We cannot afford to make mistakes towards consumers in that area.” Furthermore, the international character of the fresh produce sector plays an crucial part. More than eighty per cent of all Dutch fresh produce is used for export. “Standardisation regarding product information is important, but not just on a Dutch level. Worldwide standards are imperative for our sector. Therefore, the Dutch fresh produce sector has created its own platform (Frug I Com) to safeguard international standards and they work in close collaboration with GS1 Nederland. Standardisation is not a solely Dutch affair any more but as a nation we can still take on a leading role”.

Take further steps

As Frug I Com Board Member and member of GS1 Nederland’s Business Council Food, Kees de Kat has been closely involved with the development of standards in the fresh produce sector. “Naturally, at Fruitmasters, we try to connect to the available standards as much as possible. We are also working on the implementation of a new ERP-system, which we can use to take further steps regarding data quality. For instance, the workflow can be

restructured, allowing for an automatic request to be sent to one department to check product details, right after they were entered in another department.” At Fruitmasters, data management falls under the responsibility of supply chain management. “After I started working at Fruitmasters in 2011, I immediately set up a department for supply chain management. This discipline not only works together with other departments in an integrated way, but also carries out the task to encourage cooperation within the supply chain. The exchange of product information is part of this.”

One hundred per cent wrong

De Kat is a strong proponent of DatakwaliTijd 2.0, the program launched by GS1 to improve data quality. “Having the right product information is very important. Even two per cent incorrect information means one hundred per cent wrong. Naturally, data quality remains high on the agenda at Fruitmasters. It makes no difference whether it is data from one of our own brands, such as the Kanzi apple or the Migo pear, or one of the products made under private label by Fruitmasters: data should always be correct. “Of course, some customers are more demanding than others, but we always try to live up to the highest standards.”

Seize the opportunities!

Kees de Kat: “It is our challenge as an industry to translate future developments into concrete actions for modern-day practice. Now is a good time to start working on that. There are plenty of opportunities in this area. Seize them!”

Kickoff of the Dutch Dataquality Program GS1 Netherlands / Frug I com for Fresh Produce.

Technology is developing fast. An overview of technological developments and applications in cultivation and supply chain.

Information exchange from farm to fork is becoming more and more essential. This session is focused on cultivation data.

"De kwaliteit van de productinformatie in GS1 Data Source (GS1 DAS) moet naar een hoger niveau. En dus ook voor AGF. Want als productinformatie niet klopt krijgt de (online) consument niet de juiste informatie en worden logistieke processen verstoord. Tijdens deze interactieve sessie krijgt u uitleg over wat het nieuwe GS1 programma DatakwaliTijd 2.0 voor AGF-bedrijven concreet betekent en wanneer u aan de slag moet gaan.

In this session, an overview will be given of technological developments and application in cultivation and supply chains. Four different innovative themes will be discussed: blockchain as a new datatech for use in fresh supply chain, swarm robotics for fresh produce, 3d category management and the future of sensoring.

In 2015 and 2016, the action research program FarmDigital was launched in the Netherlands. FarmDigital is currently working towards a situation in which compliance data only needs to be entered once and can be shared easily. It aims to achieve this goal by standardising data and developing and implementing an independent, digital platform for people to use. In this session, the outcomes of this research program will be presented and discussed.

What is Frug I Com?

What does Frug I Com do?

Frug I Com is a unique collaboration of the Dutch Potatoes, Vegetables and Fruit chain, further referred to as AGF chain. The ultimate goal is to establish electronic exchange of information between the participants in AGF by means of uniform labelling using electronic messages. This standard allows companies within the AGF to make optimum use of the information available in the AGF chain and to apply it to order processing, tracing of products, optimising logistics and quality improvement. The result? A faster and more efficient AGF chain which is less error-prone.

Offering guidance and support to chains

Â

For companies, making the change to new standards is a complex process. Frug I Com offers guidance and support to entrepreneurs making this change. During the process it is essential that Frug I Com offers assistance in making the benefits visible and quantifiable at company level. The emphasis lies on doing this within a limited number of practical situations in which the whole chain is involved. This will result in practical solutions which may serve as test cases for the sector as a whole. Throughout, we are concerned with products that find their way from grower to retailer.

Mission

Representation of interests and networking

Frug I Com works hard on making and keeping available standards for electronic messaging, coding and the like for the AGF chain. This is absolutely essential to take information usage within the sector to a higher level.

It is in the best interest of the AGF chain that standards are implemented optimally. Frug I Com represents the interests of the chain, both in the Netherlands and abroad. To this end, the company needs to have access to active networks throughout the chain.

We closely monitor how the chain, market and standards develop – then we analyse the effects this has on the sector. Because knowledge plays a crucial role when implementing standards this procedure directs the activities of Frug I Com. Frug I Com gathers knowledge in co-operation with several knowledge institutes. Subsequently, knowledge is recorded and safely stored. Finally, knowledge is made available to the entrepreneurs in the chain.

Information

Vision It is our vision that both the sector as a whole and the individual companies may benefit from better use of information, from information becoming available more quickly and from sharing information more freely between the companies in the industrial column. When all these opportunities are acted upon, the sector as a whole will become stronger and more efficient and the number of potential markets will increase at minimum costs.

Monitoring, analysis and gathering knowledge

For more information, please contact Frug I Com. Website: www.frugicom.nl or send an e-mail to info@frugicom.nl.

Promotion  We also promote standards for the chain and its companies. We do this not only for individual entrepreneurs but also for sector organisations, governments, audit agencies and the like.

St. Martina Greenery International, CEO #NEXTGENERATIONCUSTOMERS

Our reusable trays are connecting products, suppliers, services and retailers along the dynamic fresh supply chain. By combining this with GS1 Standards and a new cloudbased system we are now able to offer smart services for supply chain control from producer to retailer.

The next generation customers, Millennials and foodies, have completely different demands on what product they want to buy, but also were and when. Hereby, it is essential to support them with relevant information about our products (recipes, how to use info, etc.). Our industry faces the challenge to adapt to this change and to transform towards this new omnichannel supply chain.
