Not only has the success of Finnish marketing system REKO which connects food producers directly with customers taken root in Cobourg, it has lead to the creation of similar small-scale producer/customer connections in Brighton, Bowmanville and Belleville says local REKO project founder Nadia Simard. http://www.cobourgnow.com/?p=14110

REKO is a Finnish trade model, created by Thomas Snellman, meaning fair consumption. The model has had remarkable success in Europe and is rapidly expanding. The aim of a REKO network is to create a direct relationship between customers and small scale producers. The ultimate goal is to have a market of fresh, healthy, local produce while also supporting small scale producers to create a viable enterprise and sustain their ethical sustainable production values. In a REKO network, several local food producers advertise goods in a common Facebook group. Customers pre-order goods via the Facebook group. Ordered goods are delivered to customers at a set time in a fixed location. It is absolutely free for both customers and producers to participate in the REKO group.
