Who We Are
The Food and Drink Federation is the voice of the UK food and drink industry,
the largest manufacturing sector in the country.
FDF's membership comprises manufacturers of all sizes as well as trade
associations and groups dealing with specific sectors of the industry.
We help our members operate in an appropriately regulated marketplace to
maximise their competitiveness. We communicate our industry's values and concerns to
Government, regulators, consumers and the media. We also work in partnership
with key players in the food chain to ensure our food is safe and that consumers
can have trust in it.
A successful food and drink sector is a vital component of a healthy UK economy.
For instance: our industry directly employs 500,000 people, and as many as 1.2
million in ancillary services; it accounts for 15% of the UK's total
manufacturing sector by value; and it is an invaluable partner to British agriculture
buying two-thirds of what farmers produce.
Our annual review will give you a taste of the work we do on behalf of the
industry. You can either download a pdf of FDF's Annual Review 2007 (580kb) or, if you would like to receive a printed copy, please email your request to: generalenquiries@fdf.org.uk
