North Coast Food Branding Programme
The four local councils in Ballymoney, Coleraine, Limavady and Moyle have developed the North Coast Food Branding Programme, to offer local food companies opportunities to grow, develop and sustain their business by receiving specialised branding support. Using a combination of practical workshops, design support and expert mentor guidance, you will get support towards positioning and presenting your products and brand in line with what your customer expects.
Firms participating on the Food Branding Programme will benefit from:

– Food branding workshops
– A Brand Audit of your food business
– A food branding action plan for your business
– One-to-one branding mentor supports
– Branding concepts and visuals for your food business

The programme is part financed by Ballymoney Borough Council, Coleraine Borough Council, Limavady Borough Council and Moyle District Council, the European Regional Development Fund under the European Sustainable Competitiveness Fund for Northern Ireland, and Invest Northern Ireland.

The North Coast Food Branding Programme will commence in November 2012, with places limited to 15 participants.

Who Should Apply?
To be eligible you must be:
• An owner/senior manager of a private sector food business or a social economy food business
• Based in the Ballymoney, Coleraine, Limavady or Moyle council areas.

How Much does it Cost?
The programme is fully subsidised by the four district councils, together with their funding partners. There is no additional cost to participants, however only companies who can demonstrate a solid commitment to the programme will be awarded a place.
