They will share insights from what they have learned so far and how they intend to build and strengthen their agency network to grow their retail rescue program by building capacity of agency partners and improving equitable access to nutritious food.

Agri Sourcing Optimization & Planning Ahead
The purpose of this session is to inform our network members on the work we have started to shape a national perspective on all three agri streams: produce, protein and dairy. With support of a 3rd party consultant, the Feeding America Supply Chain team conducted an analysis of current and future state of sourcing for agri foods. The work was conducted in calendar Q12021 and includes farm, processor, manufacturing and retail. As we move forward together, some of the questions we are seeking to address:
1) How much produce/protein/dairy should FA and the Network source to meet the nutritional requirements and preferences for our clients?
2) Is expansion possible (from today’s volume) and at what cost per pound?
3) What network capacity and input is needed to support this increase in supply?
Please join us to learn more about this nascent perspective and how it may support your strategic planning.
