In an open competitive environment, businesses in various Quebec bio-food sectors are increasingly collaborating to develop value chains. Value chains can help structure certain sectors and offer their members the ability to differentiate their products from those of their competitors.
On March 24, authors Lota Tamini, a professor at Laval University and CIRANO Fellow, and Laurence Morin-Rivet, a lecturer at Laval University, will present their recent CIRANO study.
In this study, the authors analyze the factors influencing the creation, development, and performance of Quebec's agri-food value chains. Their analyses reveal that the concept of added value is unevenly understood, and identify five key factors for the development of value chains:
- coordination and collaboration,
- market orientation,
- innovation,
- efficiency,
- public policies.
Public policies play a key role in supporting organization and flexibility, innovation, consumer satisfaction, and competitiveness.
