what we offer
food tourism services
FTM offers food tourism services for destinations (DMCs and DMOs) and their local businesses in three main categories:
On the one hand, FTM reinforces destinations to identify their authentic food identity and to strategise on how to use it effectively to strengthen their (food) tourism industry. Moreover, FTM promotes and takes over projects such as creating food tourism routes, food festivals or culinary guides.
On the other hand, local businesses that offer traditional culinary products and services such as breweries, food tours and wine tastings will be supported when it comes to taking their business to the next level or getting the word out. Not only business owners but also future entrepreneurs can take advantage of FTM’s food tourism services.
