Food Industry R&D Tax Credits
The food and drinks industry is the largest manufacturing sector in the UK, contributing around £28 billion to the economy each year, and employing over 400,000 people.
As consumer appetites become more adventurous, the industry continues to innovate, looking to discover the next big food trend.
Of course, innovation in the food and drink industry is a lot more than looking for the next avocado on toast. It encompasses improving nutritional value, increasing food security, reducing costs, enhancing sensory aspects to make food more attractive and looking into more efficient, sustainable growing methods.
Tax credits for R&D in the food industry are designed to support this innovation. These can be used to fund much of the initial outlay connected to developing new products or processes, such as:
- Staff costs
- Sub-contractors
- Consumables
- Software costs
