An ERDF-funded project is helping micro and small companies in the Swiss-Italian diary industry make products that are more competitive internationally, while seeking to improve the supply chain.

The project is being implemented in the Aosta Valley, Italy, and the Canton of Valais in Switzerland.

Work will involve analysing the existing regulatory framework, management methods and processing technologies, products and by-products, and the supply chain.

Next, companies in the cross-border area will receive scientific and technical support to improve their processes and logistics. One aim is to find ways of consolidating shipments and better matching supply and demand. This could reduce transport costs, congestion, noise and air pollution and accidents.

Companies in the dairy, agri-food or logistics sectors can volunteer to test and develop solutions, including use of next-generation internet technologies.

The ERDF is providing funding of EUR 1 273 998, out of a total budget of EUR 1 533 599 for Italy and CHF 740 000 (EUR 685 000) for Switzerland.
