David Thomson, Food and Drink Federation Scotland’s Chief Executive Officer, said:
"Food and drink manufacturers are a vital part of Scotland’s economy and to our communities across the country.
"It’s great to see the Scottish Government’s continued support for food and drink in this year’s Programme for Government.
"We welcome measures including putting in place a new Six Point Export Plan; investing in Scotland’s food and drink strategy; re-opening the Food Processing, Marketing and Co-operation Grant scheme; and providing further support to the Scottish Industrial Energy Transformation Fund. All of which will be important in supporting the sustainable growth of our food and drink manufacturing industry.
"We will continue to work in partnership with the Scottish Government to ensure our food and drink businesses have the support they need for future success.”
