This tender presents significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in educational resources or training services related to food safety and allergens. With changes in legislation affecting food labelling, businesses involved in training or resource development in this domain could find new avenues for growth. Companies that can provide multilingual training materials or support food businesses in complying with new allergen regulations would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar contracts in the future.

Notice Title

Supply of Food Allergy Awareness Training Resource - Additional Languages

Notice Description

A lack of LA resources and reduced capacity and resilience currently means that there is a shortage of educational initiatives for FBO's. The changes in legislation for allergens to be declared for Pre-Packed for Direct Sale foods came into being in October 2021 and could result in an initial wave of significant breaches, non compliances and misunderstandings all of which could result in the supply of unsafe food.
