The North Atlantic Seafood Forum has called on the British government to back Grimsby’s GBP 75 million seafood manufacturing plan.
North East Lincolnshire Council (NELC) submitted a bid for GBP 14 million to the Department for Business Innovation and Skills in June. If the funds are granted, private businesses have pledged to back the scheme with an investment of GBP 61 million.??
If all goes according to plan, the scheme will create 970 jobs in local food manufacturing.??
