Costs and opportunities for Scottish products with higher value status
We are researchers based at the Rowett Institute and are studying, with colleagues based in Scotland’s Rural College, the costs and opportunities for Scottish products with higher value status and the trade-offs between price premiums and production costs. In this part of the study we are interested in gathering interviewees’ perceptions of: the production of cheese products, the main inputs and their relative importance (e.g. in light of recent energy price rises), trading relationships, the pros and cons of quality and assurance schemes (e.g. Protected Geographical Indication), the policy environment (e.g. concerning exports), and networking bodies and events.
We are seeking to interview food producers, marketers, and consultants with experience of working with high value cheese products.
