Sweet future: 26 apprenticeships in Hildesheim's food industry!

In the district of Hildesheim, it runs round in training in the food industry. Currently, 26 apprenticeships are to be awarded in this industry, as the Hannover Trade Union reports. This is particularly remarkable because 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 drinks, the sector is an important employer in the region.

The NGG Hannover takes this opportunity to provide young people comprehensively about the diverse training opportunities in the nutrition industry. The specialists in food production can look forward to more attractive salaries. For example, specialists in the confectionery industry start with an entry -level content of 3,464 euros, in the sugar industry there are even 4,175 euros. In Lower Saxony, around 106,500 people now work in food production, which means an increase of 14 percent compared to ten years ago.
