About this Event
Introduction
Do you produce an excessive amount of food waste as a food or drink producer?
Are you wondering if it's possible to turn this trash into a profit? Putting your new product development skills to the test while also benefiting the environment!
Food waste has been increasing for several years. Food and food shortages have been on most people's minds in recent years, especially with the rising cost of raw materials. While Food banks are a wonderful idea, they cannot absorb all surpluses; thus, this is something we can all work on, both at home and in business.
Now is the time to put your ideas into action and start addressing them.
