Scottish Enterprise and Scotland Food & Drink are offering Scottish companies a unique opportunity to help identify, and develop new products and processes for the commercially lucrative global food and health market.

Health and nutrition are dominant trends within the food and drink sector. Naturally healthy foods, reformulated foods and leading edge functional foods represent a total market opportunity of £20bn in the UK and over £300bn worldwide.

Scottish companies are ideally placed to succeed in this market with our international reputation for high quality, naturally healthy food products. To help Scottish companies take advantage of this growth market, we have launched the Food & Health Innovation Service.

Campden BRI, a world leader in food innovation, has been appointed to lead this new initiative and provide a complete package of support for Scottish food and drink companies.

The Food & Health Innovation Service will help companies:

• Identify and understand the market opportunities in food and health that are relevant to their business and how these may be successfully exploited

• Understand the food and health technologies that can be applied to result in new processes and new products for their business

• Assist with the technical process of exploiting the above opportunities resulting in new product and process development and product reformulation

• Scope out new project ideas in detail, including where to find new solutions and identifying the best partners to work with if required. This scoping will result in a detailed and fully costed project plan

• Identify appropriate sources of funding to help deliver these fully scoped projects and help companies access this funding
