Abstract
Research funded by the Barrow and Geraldine S. Cadbury Trust into the ethnic minority food industry in the West Midlands is described. The structure of this sector and identification of the interrelationships within it, from the food manufacturers through to the retail outlets, were examined. Policy implications of these and the reasons for so many food businesses starting up and subsequently failing are presented.
