Free advice for food firms

Session to support food industry

School

Food and drink businesses can meet industry leaders and obtain advice, at a free event in Melton this month.

The food and drink business growth expo takes place from 4-7pm on 25 October 2016 at Brooksby Melton College’s Melton town campus (Asfordby Road, LE13 0HJ). To book, please register.

 

Leicestershire is famous for its fine food and we want to ensure businesses have the expertise they need, in order to continue to thrive.

 

There will be six advice seminars, plus exhibitors from a range of organisations including the National Farmers’ Union, the Federation of Small Businesses and the Leicestershire Food Forum.

The event is supported by the county council, Leicester City Council, Melton Borough Council, the Leicester and Leicestershire Enterprise Partnership (LLEP) and the East Midlands Chamber.
