Food companies sought by Bord Bia and PwC

Food and drink companies likely to grow with the help of bespoke mentoring are being sought for Ascent, a support programme hosted by Bord Bia and PwC.

“This is the second year of the programme and feedback from last year has been extremely positive,” said Maria Stokes, Ascent programme manager, Bord Bia.

“We worked with a wide range of companies in year one, covering all sectors and sizes, and each had an unique challenge to overcome from distribution and logistics to succession planning and export growth strategies. Through one-to-one advice and mentoring from Bord Bia and PwC, the companies were provided with a customised action plan outlining clear workable solutions.”
