British food and drink manufacturers are facing the largest shortage of skilled workers since the 1980s.
Yes, there are structural reasons beyond their control, including a lack of visas for foreign workers since Brexit and the ongoing ripple effect of Covid-19. But there are plenty of steps they can take to improve rates of retention and attract the next generation of talent. That includes investing in tech.

In this webinar, we’ll explore practical ways that food and drink manufacturers can use emerging technologies to build a more engaged, more productive workforce. In short, a workforce with far more appeal to prospective talent.
