The challenge
What stood in the way
Tonghai is known as China’s “home of vegetables”, with thousands of hectares of farmland. Short shelf life ruled out distant markets, and foam boxes with ice packs made transport expensive.
What we did
A process built for this crop
Synarise designed a biocell dormancy process for each single vegetable, matched to its own characteristics.
