Food supply chain skills
Aim: Launch initiatives by 2015 with educational organisations
to provide the core skills required for the long term success of
the food supply chain.
Progress: On plan This is an existing commitment. The M&S
Farming for the Future Education Programme is a collaborative
venture with our Food suppliers. It aims to address the shortage
of talented young people entering the agricultural industry. This
year as part of the programme, we ran two executive education
courses at Cranfi eld University for future leaders from across
the M&S food supply chain.
