The South West Food & Drink Skills Network was set up as a result of intensive research into the needs for basic skills within the food & drink industry.  
 
It was discovered that there was a requirement for quality skills training support and that there needed to be a way of obtaining expertise in certain areas such as product development, supply chain mechanisms and management strategies. We are now assisting businesses by putting into place opportunities and methods needed to achieve this.  
 
Our aim is to actively support local small to medium sized businesses within the south west region.
