This will provide SMEs with a great opportunity to gain new distribution for their products and to get expert advice on how to succeed.
West Cork will be represented by Danny O’Regan’s business Schull & Crossbones, the only Irish producer of dairy and lactose-free alternatives to yoghurt. Based in Schull, the range is called Coconut Treasure and is vegan-friendly.
The event is trade-only, so it is open to buyers from across the food industry such as supermarket groups, food wholesalers, retailers, independent fine food shops, food service, development chefs, restaurants and more.
It’s set to be a key annual business event for industry.
