I attended the Food Business Course at the Portobello Business Centre, I found the course very helpful and I would recommend it to anyone thinking of starting a business in the food industry. The course covers quite a lot of useful information from creating your own business plan, branding and pricing your product correctly, marketing, legal issues, accounts, managing staff, etc. You may start to do this course with one idea and come out with a better one.
