Food tourism programme

Put food tourism at the heart of your business growth

People want to experience food and drink at source more than ever before, creating opportunities for you to:

connect with consumers and turn them into ambassadors for your products;
celebrate your regionality and provenance through authentic experiences;
tell your story and demonstrate your sustainability; and
increase sales and develop new revenue streams.

Fully-funded practical support is now available for food and drink manufacturing businesses in north east Scotland to develop food tourism experiences.

You can register for all or individual elements of the programme to suit your needs.
