WHAT IS A FOOD CONSULTANCY?

Broadly speaking, consultants are independent, professional advisors who work as an advocate for their client.

Chosen well, they provide knowledge, experience and expertise that don’t exist in-house, or are not available at the time they are needed.  Chosen poorly, they can misuse valuable and scarce resources, antagonise staff, create negative narratives for their clients and produce no legacy for the client’s investment

The majority of food consultants work in the foodservice and hospitality industries, but PAPRIKA are different. We are Place Management consultants, using food (and culture) as a tool to show what links communities together, not what separates them.

WHY MIGHT I NEED PAPRIKA?

Food is the universal language of communities. It is non-judgemental and inclusive, bringing people together across faith, race and gender, income and education.

Policies, strategies, events and activities that use food effectively as a tool, have a higher chance of success.

Recent Place research, especially in the area of High Streets and communities, focuses on the ways in which markets and culture can create safer, more cohesive communities with a positive economic impact.  PAPRIKA fills that skill gap for you.
