You work hard to produce exceptional food and drink, but finding the time to reach new customers alongside daily production and orders is a constant challenge.
Could your next customer be based elsewhere in the UK, or even overseas?
To help you find out, we are partnering with Cumbria Business Growth Hub in hosting a launch event to introduce the new Food & Drink Growth Collective programme taking place on Monday 30th November. This is an exclusive, one-off introductory workshop specifically designed for food and drink producers across Cumbria and Lancashire.
Delivered by Thomas Jardine & Co, this session gives you the rare chance to step back from day-to-day operations, learn from fellow producers, and focus entirely on your growth priorities.
By spending just a few hours with us, you’ll leave with:
• A 30-day action plan with practical, immediate steps for your business
• One clear priority customer group, sales channel, or overseas market to target
• A clearer view of your readiness for UK growth and exporting.
You’ll also get an exclusive preview of the two pathways within our full Food & Drink Growth Collective programme: Grow Across the UK and Grow Through Exporting. It is the perfect opportunity to see which path fits your ambitions and discover how to successfully approach new buyers and distributors, choose markets and build profitable sales.
