Plant-Based Snack Company Helps Revive Scotland’s Seaweed Industry

June 30, 2020: 12:00 AM EST
With the help of £1.7 million ($2.2 million) in new investment, Scottish seaweed food firm Shore (Alness) is expanding its range of plant-based snacks. Shore uses sustainably harvested seaweed to produce its range of snacks, introduced in late 2018. Seaweed has a long history in Scotland: at one time the industry was worth about £7.5 million ($9.2 million) a year to the Hebrides alone. The funding package combines a business development grant from Highlands and Island Enterprise (HIE), equity investment from the Scottish Investment Bank (SIB), and contributions from several private investors.[Image Credit: © Ronile from Pixabay]
