  10. Business needs of the ECR Europe workshop companies (January, 22th meeting in Brussels) • Cooperation and collaboration on the global supply chain (business cases) • Work at a European level because of the unique market and the new European regulation (how to use 178/2002/EC) • Make a compilation of what is already done to make a unique document to be used in all the different European countries • Communication and implementation of standards and procedures • Work downstream and upstream and with logistics providers • Critical mass to implement • Food / non food
