Lancashire Food Producers Fair

“One of Lancashire’s most successful sectors is food and drink, which in terms of the visitor economy spend alone, contributes over £1bn to the local economy. Through our Taste Lancashire campaigns and partners, we aim to highlight the excellence and diversity of the county’s hospitality, food producers and culinary talent. This event allows us to focus specifically on those women who have made a huge impact on the sector and are inspiring the next wave of Lancashire food entrepreneurs.” Rachel McQueen, Chief Executive, Marketing Lancashire
