Open Food Facts on the Projets Libres podcast!
A few weeks ago, we met Walid François Nouh, product developer at Murfy and host of the brilliant podcast “Projets Libres”, which brilliantly highlights open source projects, deciphering their business models, how they work and how they run their communities, among other things.
We’re really grateful to Walid, who offered to record 2 episodes on the Open Food Facts project – yes, there’s a lot to talk about 😉

Many thanks to Walid for his invitation, his pertinent questions and his willingness to listen. We’re really pleased to have discovered this podcast – free projects need more visibility, and his initiative is invaluable! 👊
