Food provenance is a term that has become increasingly familiar with consumers over the past few decades. That’s because people are looking for more data about the origins of the food they buy, where it has been grown, raised or caught and how it has been produced and transported to the supermarket shelves.
All those factors contribute to the purchasing decisions of shoppers as they seek quality assured food in the supply chain. It is against this background that events have been organised in Waterford to highlight the region’s reputation for quality food.
