Study Visit 3
The consortium had planned to meet in September 2020, but due to the COVID pandemic, the meeting was postponed. Partners, together with their stakeholders, had an interesting study visit at Magro Food Village and FXB in Xewkija Industrial Estate. In semester two of the project, the two mentioned industries were voted amongst the best fourteen practices out of a total of seventy best practices. Due to the large number of participants, the consortium was divided into two groups. Apart from a tour around the premises, where the participants could observe the industry processes, the consortium was also briefed about the renewable energy sources the industry currently uses and their plans for the future to decrease further the industry’s dependency on fossil fuels.
