Hi
Banc Organics relaunched this year as a new cIC. We have had to move to a new packing shed, fortunately we’ve found a great place, with plent of room, we’ve also had an almost complete turnover of staff in the picking/packing/distribution operation. This means were in a place where the team lacks experience, but they are enthusiastic and we have the opportunity to set up a really efficient well run shed. i’d like to organise a visit (I know this might not be possible just at this moment) or some other form of learning for the team so they can get some ideas of how this might be done well.
We are currently packing about 70 boxes a week but plan to be about 150 both of our own anf bought in produce as well as some whole foods and other items both as set boxes ad as ‘loose’ webshop sales.
Is this something you do well and could help with or do you know somewhere. I’ve approached Tyfu cymru to see if they will help. ideally it would be a site visit or tour of a couple of businesses, that always works best for me for this sort of learning. but we might have to be creative about how it is done at the moment.
Very happy to have this as some kind of open event I can’t think we’re the only ones who could do with improving in this area.
Thanks
