INTRODUCTION 

This is a Scouting Challenge seeking a partner or supplier to provide systems or expertise to solve the Seeker’s business challenge; the Solver is invited to submit a written proposal to be evaluated by the Seeker. 

ABOUT THE SEEKER / THE COMPANY 

Seeker is a multinational company operating in the food retail sector, with convenience stores and large-scale stores selling food and non-food products to the end consumer. 

CONTEXT 

As Seeker, a food retailer specializing in fruits and vegetables, currently provides transparent plastic bags to customers for packaging fruits and vegetables. In order to honor its commitment to society, the environment and its consumers and their concerns, the company aims to find alternative solutions that are more sustainable than the current solution. 

CHALLENGE 

The Seeker, as a food retailer, aims to find a more sustainable alternative for this product. The solution should enable the retailer to replace the current option (plastic bags for packaging fruits and vegetables) being open to new concepts, business models, or technologies. 

MATURITY LEVEL  

Solvers are encouraged to propose concepts, solutions and technologies, or your knowledge and expertise that have already been tested and could be implemented in this context as needed. 

If the answer is a tech solution we are aiming to find the ideas with an experiment in a short period of time without the need of a lot of resources (naming money) and low dependency of internal IT and other internal departments. 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: 

This is a Scouting Challenge, which has the following features: 

1. The Seeker will evaluate your submission to determine their interest to contact you for further business and collaboration discussions. 

2. If further contact is requested, you can negotiate the terms of the contract (including scope of work, tasks and duration) directly with the Seeker. 

3. The monetary value of any contract will vary depending on the amount of work to be delivered and the agreed upon time frame.
