Manufacturing Programme Open For Business
Businesses in Belfast and Lisburn who want to "maximise customer value while minimising waste" are urged to register for the Manufacturing Efficiency Programme.
The brainchild of both councils, the programme will involve workshops, mentoring and support from industry experts, but only a limited number of businesses can be involved.
Previous participants at Suki Tea said the programme helped the company streamline its business, hitting a 25% increase in production output.
The closing date for registration is this Friday - call Belfast City Council's Economic Development Unit on (028) 9091 8771 or email kellands@belfastcity.gov.uk.
