New Isle of Man Food and Drink website launched

Wed, 11 Aug 2021


A website showcasing the Isle of Man’s vibrant food and drink industry has been launched.

It has been designed to help residents, businesses and visitors discover the huge array of local producers, and to encourage consumers to purchase food and drink which is grown, reared, caught, sourced and processed on the Isle of Man.

The website will also raise awareness about the importance of provenance and traceability and its worth to the local economy, as well as support for local businesses – including a directory and details of how to apply for the Provenance Label and financial assistance.

The Isle of Man Food and Drink site has been created by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture and includes event listings, industry updates and details of businesses who provide a home delivery service. Local business listings have increased from around 30 to almost 100 of our passionate producers since the directory was first introduced in 2009.

The site has been created as part of the Food Matters strategy – which aims to grow the economic contribution of Isle of Man Food and Drink from £75 million in 2015 to at least £125 million in 2025.
