Summary

This project aimed to develop ‘how to’ guide for small to medium businesses to assist in navigating the Food Standards Code as well as a simple promotional brochure framework, using Augusta Wild Caught Fisheries to illustrate how it could be used in practice. This guide aims to help small to medium sized seafood businesses to promote and market their products by:

Outlining the chapters of the Food Standards Code (the Code) that relate to food sold in Australia
Providing some information about common microbiological testing
Including a format of a brochure that businesses could use to promote the health benefits of their products.

Small to medium businesses now have a resource to assist them in navigating through the Australian Food Standards Code. This resource will help them to understand the requirements of food labelling within the Code and includes template to assist in developing a marketing brochure.
