The North East Culinary Trade Association aims to provide the skills and opportunities available to chefs, food producers and catering professionals in the North East of England.
By working closely with catering colleges, employers, producers and manufacturers and staging major annual events such as the North East Chef of the Year competition NECTA hopes to raise the profile and quality of the catering and hospitality trade in the North of England to equal that of anywhere in the country.
The NECTA committee is made up of a wide selection of catering professionals, chefs, restaurateurs, lecturers and manufacturers who all give up their time voluntarily to work together to promote their passion for the food and drink industry.
