Vending firm wins £100K funding for own-brand healthy nibbles
Healthy Nibbles received the £100,000 funding, which will also be used to create new employment opportunities, from seven private investors.
The firm, which has accessed support from Business Gateway Midlothian, is looking to introduce its own “raw chocolate trail mix” snacks to its vending machines and corporate boxes, as well as take on a modern apprentice and business development expert.
