Until 2003 sales of organically produced berries were very low. Also table grapes, pome and stone fruit need support and promotion activities along the whole chain from farm to shelf. &#13;
&#13;
The aim of the project is to ensure a continuous delivery for Coop with an attractive assortment of organic fruit and berries. A nation-wide professional producers' network and a logistic system should be established. &#13;
&#13;
Between 2002 and 2005 the sales of organic berries at Coop rose by 371 %.  Currently, special attention is given to table grapes, stonefruit and pears.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Fruit and berries</mods:classification><mods:genre>Project description</mods:genre></mods:mods>
