when the market declined by 1.2%. The biggest

Cool benefits of frozen food
• Freezing is a natural process and does not usually require the use of any preservatives.• Frozen food seals in freshness. Frozen vegetables, for example, are picked and frozen
within hours of harvest, therefore locking in the vitamins and minerals, as well as the taste and texture.
• Thanks to freezing technology, people can enjoy all types of food throughout the year, regardless of the season at affordable prices.
• Freezing food could kill or reduce many potentially harmful microbes, which cause food poisoning.
• Frozen food tends to cost less than fresh, can be stored for much longer and offers brilliant flexibility for meal planning, thereby reducing wastage.
• Manufacturers are able to freeze food within minutes, which, compared to home freezing, gives a superior texture, taste and appearance, as well as retaining the nutritional value.
• Frozen food is easy to keep and easy to use, and there is little waste, whereas two thirds of the population ditch anything up to 20 items of fresh and chilled food a month.
• Frozen food gives consumers a quick and convenient way of fitting in a nutritious meal.

5 Compelling Reasons for EIS30% Initial Income Tax Relief - claim back up to 30% relief against personal income tax on EIS investments to a maximum of £500,000 each per tax year. This allowance can be carried back to the previous tax year for offset against income tax. Shares must be held for a minimum of 3 years from the date they are issued. Actual cost 70 pence in the £1.
CGT Freedom - No Capital Gains Tax payable on disposal of shares after three years provided the EIS initial income tax relief was given and not withdrawn on those shares. No Capital Gains Tax to pay.
Inheritance Tax Relief - Shares in EIS qualifying companies will generally fall outside the estate for the purposes of Inheritance Tax purposes after two years, potentially reducing IHT liability to nil. Potential 40 pence in the £1 saving.
CGT Deferral Relief - is not capped at £500,000 and allows up to three-year-old capital gains tax to be rolled over into EIS companies and deferred indefinitely. Potential unlimited and indefinite deferral of existing an existing CGT bill Example
Loss Relief - If EIS shares are disposed of at any time at a loss (after taking into account income tax relief), the loss can be set against either the investor's income tax (in the year of disposal or the previous year) or capital gains tax liability. Maximum exposure 35 pence in the £1 for a 50% tax payer. Example
