Future challenges • Roll out to other products and fresh chains • Quality controlled planning • Track and trace products individually: – Mixed bouquets – Getting feed back from consumers
• Optimization transport: – Solving bottlenecks when combining transport of flowers and pot plants with fruits and vegetables (which require different environmental conditions)
