Ecological footprinting for SMEs, Sustainable Supply Chains, Developing Sustainable Food Business, Food packaging & Food Waste, True Taste Awards, rural development, alternative land use..................all in a day's work (well 4 years or so actually!)

Now into our 5th year we thought it was about time that we began spreading the word about some of the projects we've been involved with since we started way back in 2008.

In the new year we'll publish the findings of some current projects that involve benchmarking and measuring the sustainable performance of a social enterprise, developing best practice guidnace for packaging in the horticulture industry, and news of our policy work on food waste and food packaging waste.

Last night the True Taste Wales food and drink Awards took place in Abergavenney Market Hall. It is THE event on the food and drink calendar in Wales.

The Sustainable Development award was presented to Kevan Downing, Hospitality Manager of Aberystwyth University.

We're absolutely delighted for Kevan and his team and we're looking forward to working with Kevan and the True Taste to continue to raise awareness of doing better business to the food and drink sector in the year ahead. Please check back for more updates.

Iain Cox explains what this means to businesses 'It's about making changes, doing business differently and it's about taking risk. It's about businesses being more innovative'
