This is an example of a “degrowth” initiative within the Catalan Integrated Coop that is quite exciting as a demonstration of one facet of a local and reduced “metabolism” society.
The Central d’Abastiment Catalana (CAC), which means “Catalan Supply Center”, is one of the most active committees of CIC. It was formed in 2012 with the purpose of creating a logistics network for the transportation and delivery of the products of small producers, who are (“self-employed”) CIC members, across the entire Catalonia. In effect, it is a public service that CIC offers to small producers and consumer-prosumer groups in Catalonia.
