Business Link For London which provides a business advisory service to Small-Medium enterprises in London, will be fully sponsoring the project. The business development department based at Centre Point, Oxford Street, London, is encouraging take up of their subsidised support services through sponsorship of events and organising seminars etc. It is believe that Caribbean food is an emerging force which is not yet truly recognised as a force in the mainstream yet hence various government funding bodies such as EQUAL or European Funds, are helping to showcase some of the local businesses producing Caribbean Foods to get exposure to other buyers and suppliers in the General Food Trade. Business Link will also have on hand expert advisers in international trade, manufacturing and restaurants or catering. There will be a wide representation from the Asian and Chinese Food Business sector, as well as French, Italian, Spanish etc.... This will be the largest Caribbean presence at a food show in Britain.
