    Summary

    The Southwest Satu Mare LAG initiated this cooperation project (between fruit growers, a school and an agritourism guesthouse) to boost the local fruit farming sector and showcase innovative methods of marketing, educational outreach, and customer development. 

    Results

    The project established a market for locally grown fruit in the Tășnad-Petrești-Săuca-Cehal area, in addition to a short supply chain supported through cooperation between local actors.

    Some 5 000 people participated in the events and exhibitions organised by the project, while another 43 000 people viewed the project’s promotional spot and short film on social media.
