Competitiveness
Food and drink manufacturing plays a vital role in underpinning the UK economy.
As well as creating wealth for the nation, manufacturers will have a key
strategic role to play in ensuring the nation's future food security against the
combined effects of climate change, higher global demand and increasing pressure on
finite resources.
FDF members want a public commitment from Government that it will support a
thriving and sustainable food sector in the UK as a top priority in its own right,
by driving clear, coherent and consistent policies in all areas which contribute
to this. This means putting in place a competitive and regulatory framework
which promotes efficiency of resource use, stimulates innovation and attracts the
skills and investment which will be needed.
