Since we took over Made in Cumbria at the beginning of May, we’ve been really busy restructuring the organisation, taking on new staff and developing some really exciting initiatives.
Made in Cumbria was established some 20 years ago as a membership organisation to help food and drink businesses grow and exploit new market opportunities, with the principal objective of delivering a sustainable, profitable route to market for members via events, retail sales and online activities.
To move Made in Cumbria forward, we’re taking a fresh new approach, establishing Made in Cumbria as a more commercial organisation.
Cumbria Chamber of Commerce is aiming to make Made in Cumbria a stylish, exciting brand, reflecting all that’s best and unique about Cumbria, demonstrating creativity, quality, and innovation, supported by a strong sense of history of place. As part of this we’re planning to re-launch in early September for the autumn season, with stylish new branding; an engaging, transactional website and interactive consumer facing e-magazine.
Watch out for more on this over the next few months ...
