In the Hildesheim district, training in the food industry is going well. There are currently 26 training positions available in this industry, as reported by the Hanover Food-Gourmet-Gastronomy Union (NGG). This is particularly noteworthy as the industry is considered relatively crisis-proof and remains stable even during economic turbulence. With around 1,650 employees in 53 food companies and three other companies that produce beverages, the sector is a significant employer in the region.

The NGG Hannover uses this opportunity to provide young people with comprehensive information about the diverse training opportunities in the nutrition industry.

For example, skilled workers in the confectionery industry start with a starting salary of 3,464 euros, and in the sugar industry it is even 4,175 euros.
