MS urges firms to register for listing
THE Welsh Conservative Shadow Minister for Environment, Energy and Rural Affairs – Janet Finchsaunders MS – has encouraged Welsh producers and supply chain companies to register for their free listing on the Welsh Food and Drink Directory.
The digital register already contains more than 600 listings and exists to raise awareness of Welsh products. Companies of all sizes are featured in the directory, which has been produced by Food Innovation Wales on behalf of Food and Drink Wales. Users can search for producers, copackers, ingredient suppliers and packaging manufacturers based on location, BRCGS product category, supply channel, export capacity and certification.
Ms Finch-saunders said: “The Welsh Food and Drink Directory is an initiative that rightly harnesses the power of the internet and digital reach to raise global awareness about our nation’s plethora of unique products. I encourage producers and supply chain companies to sign up for their free listing. This register will help to promote sustainable food production and waste efficiency as it also lets companies advertise waste that may be of value to other businesses. Knowledge is power, and so it is the joining of these dots which will assist in our efforts to confront climate change.”
