Key challenges
  • Most of the added value leaves with the raw material, for lack of local units.
  • Process continuity, energy and food safety: the three hard points of processing units.
  • Packaging rare and expensive, limiting access to modern markets.
  • HACCP compliance and labelling required by modern retail and export.
What XP-NOVA brings
  • Sizing of processing units: process, energy, cold, siting.
  • Food safety management plans and HACCP up to certification.
  • Verifiable CAPEX and supplier consultation for bankable investments.
  • By-product valorisation and packaging engineering.
