We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact (MUFPP) report, “Wholesale Markets – Public Spaces for Interconnected Food Policies,“ which was unveiled online on November 8, 2024. WUWM proudly contributed to this comprehensive report, which highlights the crucial role of wholesale markets in shaping sustainable, resilient urban food systems.
The report emphasizes that wholesale markets are far more than just points of distribution—they are critical infrastructure that supports food security, economic development, and community well-being. Through global case studies, the report demonstrates how wholesale markets are central to creating efficient food supply chains and mitigating challenges faced by urban areas.
This report is not only an analysis but also a call to action for policymakers, market operators, and all stakeholders in the food system. It provides clear recommendations for integrating wholesale markets into urban food policies to ensure a sustainable and resilient food future for all.
