Sgf Goes Local
Another Scottish Government-funded scheme designed to boost the availability of Scottish produce in stores is the Go Local Programme. Launched by SRFDA partner the Scottish Grocers Federation in 2020, it o ers Scotland’s local retailers up to £5,000 in matched funding to provide dedicated, long-term display space for locally-sourced Scottish products.
Applications are still open to phase 4 of the programme, which will allocate a further £190,000 to least 40 geographically and demographically diverse stores to help consumers access more fresh, quality Scottish produce.
Now in their third year, the Scottish Retail Food & Drink Awards have one simple goal: to help get more fantastic Scottish food and drink products onto more retail shelves in Scotland.
