9. Administration and Coordination

Administration and Coordination

The SARF and Eat Sheffield initiatives are in no way intended to create another administrative body or to replicate the responsibilities or activities of the individual organisations. SARF works in partnership with all industry related parties to facilitate and coordinate complementary and/or cooperative activities of the restaurant community. 

 

The SARF 'Eat Sheffield' brand is a promotion vehicle which will be leveraged to maximum impact of all marketing and promotional events. 

 

Goal
The Eat Sheffield portal will provide a reference point through which all regional leisure, food and drink initiatives can be broadcasted to local public and foodie tourists.  We hope that future funding will also assist the development of a SARF members private network portal that will facilitates a central repository for collection and dissemination of accumulated industry intelligence.
