What was the difference between Food4Macc and Food4MaccDirect?

Food4Macc and Food4MaccDirect were separate but closely related organisations.

Food4Macc is a voluntary organisation that promotes the local growing and production of food as a way of reducing food miles.

We continue to support schools and community groups wanting to set up vegetable gardens.

As a charitable organisation, we can claim Gift Aid on membership fees, increasing their worth by 25%.

Food4MaccDirect was spun-off from
Food4Macc as a company limited by guarantee in 2009. 
This allowed it to buy locally produced food and sell it to local people.  
It was run as a not-for-profit community enterprise for the benefit of local consumers and producers.
But, despite being a "not-for-profit" organisation, Food4MaccDirect could not claim Gift Aid, and therefore had to be a separate organisation from Food4Macc.

 Food4MaccDirect stopped trading at the end of 2016 rather than taking market share from other local food retailers that had sprung up. more information
