Details of the project :
Problematic
The aid received by the Food Banks is stored and then regularly redistributed to local associations (e.g. Saint Vincent de Paul, Emmaus, etc.), whose role is to distribute the aid directly to the beneficiaries.
As part of the reform of the PEAD (European Programme for the Most Deprived), an interministerial inspection report was submitted in 2008 on the organisation and management of the public support system, which recommends, in particular, an IT modernisation of the associations distributing food aid.

Main characteristics of the client
Since 1984, when the first French Food Bank was set up in Paris, 79 Food Banks have been created to cover most of France.
