Scotland's unique strengths

"" 

When buying Scottish products, you know that you're buying products from a country with strong support behind the food and drink industry.

Scotland’s food and drink producers benefit greatly from government and industry’s push to increase the competitiveness of the sector.

The Scottish Government and economic development agencies are supporting the objectives of the industry-led strategy group, Scotland Food & Drink, to grow the industry to £12.5 billion by 2017 and to increase GVA to £6.1 billion.

Three key strengths

Scotland's food and drink strategy promotes three of Scotland’s key strengths, at home and abroad:

  • Premium – strong internationally competitive premium brands
  • Health – a reputation for naturally healthy food
  • Provenance – quality, authenticity and trustworthiness of Scottish products

Scotland Food & Drink's dedication to growing the reputation of Scottish products around the world means that when consumers see 'Scotland' on the label, they will be seeing a stamp of quality.
