A fresh opportunity
Our ambition is that by 2026, 50% of public money spent on food and drink in the South West will be spent directly with small and medium sized producers based in the region.
To achieve this, we are working with the government’s Crown Commercial Service to deliver the Future Food Framework, which is a new dynamic approach to public sector food procurement that will help small and medium sized producers in the region to sell directly to public sector institutions.

Shortening supply chains
The South West Food Hub is supporting the regionβs food network to buy local and establish shorter and more sustainable supply chains. We work across the South Westβs food sector, focusing primarily on public procurement.
