MSP for Na h-Eileanan an Iar, Alasdair Allan, is encouraging local food and drink producers across the Western Isles to apply for funding from the Scottish Government’s Regional Food Fund.


The Regional Food Fund has made £100,000 available for businesses and groups who are undertaking projects to promote regional products and open new markets. The fund has so far supported a variety of projects across Scotland and is an excellent opportunity for local businesses, producers, and community groups in the Outer Hebrides to showcase the best food and drink products from our region.


Commenting, SNP MSP Alasdair Allan said:


“This fund is an excellent opportunity for food and drink enterprises here in the islands to access support to help promote their fantastic local products.


“Scotland’s food and drink sector is a multi-billion-pound industry – and this fund ensures that local producers get the opportunity to fully take advantage of national supply chains and promote their products across the country.


“I strongly encourage any local producers in the Western Isles to apply for this fund before the November 24thdeadline – our local produce is in demand across the country, and this support will help local businesses tap further into the regional and national market.”

Applications can be made here: Regional Food Fund (RFF).
