Students will discover the 5 stages of food production and investigate local supply chains. Modelled on Lancashire’s hundreds of successful independent food brands, students will work in groups on a “Dragons Den” style task to create a hypothetical new food product which will require them to develop the branding, a marketing strategy and a 2-minute pitch to potential investors.
Finally, learners will discover potential career opportunities and education routes through Further Education, Higher Education and Apprenticeships towards a successful career in this industry.
