Join the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development for an insightful workshop with the United Kingdom’s “Dr Food”, Professor David Hughes

With his extensive knowledge of global food and beverage issues, Professor Hughes will delve into trends and industry developments, while highlighting opportunities for Western Australian manufacturers.

Professor Hughes will provide insights into food packaging, production, consumer behaviour, and marketing opportunities in the context of a dynamic global food and beverage landscape. He will also look at the global political environment we are operating in, and how changing political policies have impacted expectations and confidence.

With markets experiencing trade restrictions and increasingly demanding safe, premium food products and transparency, it is critical to understand where the growth opportunities exist for WA food and beverage.
