Food Starter, the foodRegio Apprenticeship Campaign
In 2013, we - foodRegio - launched the FOODSTARTER trainee campaign with the aim of working with a selection of foodRegio member companies to highlight the attractiveness and diversity of career opportunities in the northern German food industry - starting with traineeships. In this way, the image of the industry is to be strengthened and the shortage of skilled workers addressed by focusing the campaign on young career starters.
In order to achieve this goal, FOODSTARTER covers a range of different measures within the campaign, from sponsorship and participation in job fairs to the organization of trainee events.
Our campaign is based on partnership and open exchange, so we can ensure that FOODSTARTER provides ideal support for the participating member companies. By offering keynote speeches on HR-related issues, we not only provide support directly at the interface between career starters and companies, but also within the companies themselves in order to strengthen the recruitment of skilled workers and provide new impulses for further development.
Ten foodRegio members are currently part of the FOODSTARTER campaign:
- Bockholdt GmbH & Co. KG
