The Buy West Eat Best program is a voluntary state-wide labelling and marketing initiative developed by the Western Australian Government to assist local food and beverage producers to identify and promote their products to grocery shoppers and those that dine out.
For almost two decades the Buy West Eat Best program has transitioned from a simple local food labelling scheme aimed at consumers (domestic focus), to a supply chain connected approach, engaging producers through to retail, foodservice, chefs as well as interstate and international markets providing a critical conduit to strengthen the resilience and sustainability of businesses and identify source of origin for consumers. There is a vast and diverse range of local businesses and brands that are members of the Buy West Eat Best community.
Over the years the program has matured, and it is vitally important to the WA economy with the agrifood sector (including food and beverage) the second largest export sector to mining and resources and critical to the diversification and sustainability of local communities throughout the State.
The program is important to the State from an economic and employment perspective – the food and drink industry or agrifood sector is the second largest export sector to mining and resources and critical to the diversification and sustainability of local communities across the State.
