Establishment and development of local supply chains with Club Med Punta and Michès

CONTEXT

Through its partnership with Agrisud, Club Med has been progressively modifying its supply chain since 2009 to create and share more values locally. 

In Dominican Republic, the project operates with 2 Club Med villages: Punta Cana and Michès. 

In both locations, the aim is to strengthen the capacities of small family farms in vulnerable situations, so that they can supply part of the local markets, as well as the Club Med villages. 

The challenges are numerous for these farms: securing production despite climatic hazards (hurricanes), improving and maintaining productivity in a context of soil fertility loss, reducing the use of chemicals… 

Agrisud has been operating in Dominican Republic with its partners since 2022. 

OBJECTIVES

Developing local supply chains according to a win-win principle: 

• Family farms benefit from secure sales channels and improve their practices to produce quality products, in quantity and regularity 
• Club Med villages benefit from quality local agroecological products, traceability and a positive image valued with their customers

RESULTS

• 2 family farms cooperatives assisted in their development 
• Local and agroecological supply chains established with the villages
