Our ‘Milky Twist’
journey
By the S3 Enterprise and Employability class at Eastbank Academy,
Glasgow
![Page 7: Inspiring careers in food and drink](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813edc550346895da951be/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

We visited a farm to find out how
milk was produced

We also visited Wiseman’s Dairy at
Bellshill
We learnt:• The skills you need to
work there • What jobs are available• How milk gets from the
dairy to your fridge

We learnt from one of the best in the business:
Barry Cuthbertson, Wiseman’s Sales and Marketing Manager
![Page 14: Inspiring careers in food and drink](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813edc550346895da951be/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Barry taught us about identifying our target market and market
research

We made a smoothie, with ice-cream and fruit
At the moment we are using blueberries but the fruit can be adjusted depending on seasonal availability

“We chose blueberries for our first sale because when we completed our market research, we had a positive response”
