    Lack of employment opportunities and low income of population in the remote rural areas of Utena and Latgale cross border region, encourages people to consider development of the alternative activities, as self-employment and participation in the local food market. The project aims to encaurage local product development and sales directly to consumer.Therefore practical trainings for meat processing (20 people), milk processing (20 people) and crops processing (20 people) for potential producers at the successful producer’s sites will be organised in the frame of the project. In order to increase cooperation between local economies local product contest (40 participants), also local menu contest for restaurants (40 dishes) in Latgale-Utena CBC region will be organised, specific local product promotion festivals – grill festival in Zarasai (2000 participants) and tea festival in Kraslava (2000 participants) started, local product fairs in Zarasai and Kraslava organized. In order to help local produces in selling their products, packing equipment, local food truck and 2 mobile kiosks adapted to the specific food hygiene standars will be purchased for the use of local product developers. It is expected that in the frame of the project created local production and delivery system will lead to increasing set up of local producers in Utena- Latgale CBC region. (English)
