The way we eat is changing.

Local Orbit’s Field Notes
1 min readJan 9, 2017

We want to know where our food comes from and how it was produced. Food buyers and suppliers are reinventing the way they operate to meet rapidly growing consumer demand for healthier, sustainable food.

Local and sustainable sourcing is an increasingly important competitive business advantage.

But legacy supply chains cannot meet the consumer demand that’s driving change across the food system.

Local Orbit offers a holistic mix of online tools, custom software development services, training and strategic consulting focused on strengthening local food economies.

We work with people as they launch new businesses and procurement programs, and as they learn, adjust, grow, struggle, succeed — and occasionally fail.

By enabling efficient, decentralized supply chains, Local Orbit increases market share for small and mid-size food producers and helps people build a more equitable and sustainable food system.
