Food White Paper

We are partnering with the food and drink industry, universities, FE colleges, LEPs and local authorities, private sector developers and central government on an ambitious, sustainable growth agenda for the Midlands food system.

Together, our Midlands Engine Food White Paper evidences the Midlands’ role in leading the transformation of the UK food system.

We have highlighted the work of our partners who have contributed to the White Paper in the case studies below.
