AN open day is to be held in Malton for a new development that could become the home of food businesses moving to the town.
The Talbot Yard is a collection of six food production units near the Talbot Hotel, and is set to welcome its first tenant in October.
The launch event on Thursday, October 6, will welcome special guest Belinda Williams, co-founder of the Yorkshire Provender soup company.
Tobias Burckhardt, surveyor for landowners Fitzwilliam Estate said: “Talbot Yard is part of Malton’s ‘Food Capital’ agenda.
“We want to capture Malton’s growing reputation as a food town and to do that we set ourselves the target of turning Talbot Yard into a hub for food and drink producers.”
Talbot Yard is aimed at start-up food companies, or kitchen-table concerns looking to take their business to the next level, and units measure from 43 sqm to 176 sqm and set in a Grade 2 listed coach yard.
