About FoodQ

FoodQ provides Queensland food and beverage producers with valuable support, education, networking and other opportunities to sustainably grow and develop their businesses.

We provide members with valuable opportunities to:

• Showcase their products to new retailers, food media, customers and distributors at exclusive trade events and through our hampers 
• Build strategic alliances to grow and support their businesses
• Discover new funding, technology and other business support ideas and opportunities
• Maximise their return on investment in terms of focussing on working on their businesses
• Work with experienced business support professionals who specialise in food and beverage business development, packaging, PR and marketing

Most importantly we’re focussed on delivering benefits to members to help them grow their business acumen and their businesses.

Every month we run a networking meeting where you can meet like-minded owners of food and beverage businesses, business support professionals, distributors and others associated with the food service industry.

Our members include household names as well as businesses just starting out. The value we add comes from the varied experience of our members, regular expert guest speakers and business support members. Our aim is to be a valued food and beverage industry business advisory and support service.

We run exclusive invitation only trade nights in April and October for members to showcase their wares direct to retailers, distributors and the food media and provide opportunities to attend major food industry shows such as Fine Food Queensland and The Courier-Mail Good Food and Wine Show through a shared FoodQ stand, subject to sufficient demand.

FoodQ is an organisation run by people just like you, working extremely hard in their businesses, passionate about the products they’ve developed, but equally keen to access opportunities for growth and development through networking.

We’re growing our profile and relations with the media and that’s also a benefit to individual members’ brands and reputations.

If nothing else, your investment in FoodQ forces you to focus on working on your business for at least a few hours per month and provides you with the support you’ve been seeking, even if you’re just starting out.
