Kuradashi Co., Ltd., which operates the Keio University SFC Research Institute and the social contribution shopping site "KURADASHI", started a demonstration experiment on February 2022, 2, aiming for a DX version of children's cafeteria support.We will match the data of the food stockpiled by the company for disasters with the children's cafeteria in Osaka prefecture.
Keio University SFC Research Institute is participating in the construction of "Smart Food Chain Platform (SFP)" in the Cabinet Office's strategic innovation creation program "Smart Bio Industry / Agricultural Fundamental Technology".This time, Kuradashi's proposal for "creating and demonstrating a mechanism for providing stable ingredients to children's cafeterias" was adopted for its social implementation, and a demonstration experiment was realized.
Sekisui House Co., Ltd. and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation are participating as food providers for children's cafeterias, and Tokyo / Nihon Kotsu Co., Ltd. is participating as a delivery company.By registering food information of disaster stocks held by Sekisui House and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation in the SFP and linking the data, we will match food with five children's cafeterias in Osaka Prefecture.Matched foods will be provided to each children's cafeteria from Sekisui House or Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation's storage around Osaka Prefecture, using taxis and trucks from Tokyo Nihon Kotsu.
According to a survey conducted by the NPO National Children's Cafeteria Support Center Musubie, more than 6,000 children's cafeterias nationwide feel that "insufficient foodstuffs" is an issue and are seeking support for foodstuffs and funds.On the other hand, in Kuradashi, companies that want to provide surplus food to the children's cafeteria have said that they do not know which group or facility to provide it to, and that they want to match.Against this background, by utilizing data linkage with SFP, we can solve problems related to matching, and by collaborating with companies that want to provide surplus food, we can provide smooth, prompt and stable food to children's cafeterias. It was decided to conduct a demonstration experiment for the purpose of realizing.The planned implementation period is from February 2022th to March 2th, 14.
* The smart food chain platform (SFP) is an "artery" in the food supply chain such as resource recycling and research and development, as well as the viewpoint from the consumer side, in addition to the viewpoint from the supply side such as production, processing, and distribution, centering on agricultural products. A linkage model that circulates "veins". The official service is scheduled to start after April 2023, and if there is a surplus of food receipt / shipment information from food manufacturers and distributors that can be provided, the receipt / shipment will be made. We will promote efforts so that food information can be linked and provided smoothly and promptly by linking immediately from the database of food and inventory.
