A Future in Food - Case Studies
Bringing Scotland's schools and food and drink manufacturers together.
A Future in Food has been established to encourage young people to think about
the food on their plates…. How is it produced? Where did the ingredients come
from? How does it get to consumers? What type of skills are required? … and, in
doing so, raise awareness of the many career opportunities on offer.
The programme's films and case studies aim at inspiring you to play your part in
promoting our sector as a career destination. They feature a variety of
companies' commitment to the communities in which they operate and personal
experiences
of a cross section of people – young employees, students and those combining
working and studying.
Committed to making a positive contribution to the communities in which it
operates, Macphie has a long standing relationship with local schools and is
enjoying
many benefits from the work they do with teachers and school children.
Nairn's is an example of how companies can engage with schools, give pupils a
taste of life in the workplace and, importantly, send out a very strong message
that the food and drink industry offers real career prospects.
