> I am pleased to be able to make this announcement at the Royal Welsh Show which provides companies from across Wales with the opportunity to showcase their brilliant food and drink, and I’m sure visitors from near and far are enjoying it.


The Minister has also announced a new scheme, the Strategic Innovation Scheme, to provide a comprehensive range of business support services to food and drink businesses across Wales.


As part of this, Project Helix, which offers technical and commercial support to the Welsh food and drink industry, will continue until March 2025\.


Latest figures show Helix, which launched in 2016, has provided a £355 million economic boost to the industry, helped create 683 jobs and protected a further 3,647 jobs. More than 700 businesses have been supported through the scheme and almost 2,100 new food and drink products developed.


Thanks to today’s announcement, the project will now be able to support larger manufacturers in Wales alongside small and medium\-sized enterprises and microbusinesses who have already benefitted.


Mike Woods, Chief Executive of Just Love Food Company said:



> Since the affiliate joined the business through Project Helix our turnover has grown by over 65% and it wouldn’t have been possible without those more robust technical structures in place. Project Helix has helped the business grow and it's helped put a foundation down that will help continue growth.


The Minister added:



> The Strategic Innovation Scheme will underpin the Welsh Government’s Vision for the Food and Drink Industry.
> 
> 
> As part of this, Project HELIX, which has had a hugely positive effect on Wales’ food and drink industry, helping companies to adopt a more efficient and strategic approach, will continue until March 2005\.
> 
> 
> The project’s positive impact is clear to see through the £355 million economic boost it has provided as well as the number of new jobs it has helped to create and the thousands it has protected. It has also been key in upskilling the Welsh workforce, and supported businesses to develop new products.

Gyda'r Sioe Frenhinol yn llawn a thorfeydd yn mwynhau rhai o gynhyrchion bwyd a diod gorau Cymru, mae'r Gweinidog wedi datgelu bod allforion y diwydiant wedi cynyddu £157m rhwng 2021 a 2022, sy'n gynnydd o 24\.5%.


Mae hyn yn gynnydd canrannol mwy na'r DU gyfan, a gynyddodd 21\.6%.


Y categorïau allforio gwerth uchaf ar gyfer Bwyd a Diod Cymru yn 2022 oedd Cig a Chynnyrch Cig ar £265m, cynnydd o 42% ers 2021, a Grawnfwyd a Pharatoadau Grawnfwyd, cynnydd o 16% i £160m.


Cyrhaeddodd gwerth allforion y sector i'r UE £594m, cynnydd o £130m ers 2021\. Roedd allforion y diwydiant i wledydd y tu allan i'r UE werth £203m yn 2022, twf mawr o £176m yn 2021\.


Ffrainc bellach yw'r gyrchfan gwerth uchaf ar gyfer allforion bwyd a diod o Gymru, ar £150m. Ymhlith y prif gyrchfannau eraill mae Gweriniaeth Iwerddon (£145m), Gwlad Belg (£78m), yr Iseldiroedd (£52m), a'r Almaen (£51m).


Meddai y Gweinidog Materion Gwledig, Lesley Griffiths:



> Mae allforion bwyd a diod o Gymru yn parhau i fynd o nerth i nerth, gan sicrhau fod pobl mewn llawer o wledydd dramor yn gallu mwynhau cynnyrch o ansawdd uchel o Gymru.
> 
> 
> Mae sgiliau, brwdfrydedd ac angerdd y sector i ddarparu'r cynnyrch gorau posibl yn glir o'r canlyniadau heddiw.
> 
> 
> Rwy'n falch o allu gwneud y cyhoeddiad hwn yn Sioe Frenhinol Cymru sy'n rhoi cyfle i gwmnïau o bob cwr o Gymru arddangos eu bwyd a'u diod gwych, ac rwy'n siŵr bod ymwelwyr o bell ac agos yn mwynhau.


Mae'r Gweinidog hefyd wedi cyhoeddi cynllun newydd, y Cynllun Arloesi Strategol, i ddarparu ystod gynhwysfawr o wasanaethau cymorth busnes i fusnesau bwyd a diod ledled Cymru.


Fel rhan o hyn, bydd Prosiect Helix, sy'n cynnig cymorth technegol a masnachol i ddiwydiant bwyd a diod Cymru, yn parhau tan fis Mawrth 2025\.


Mae'r ffigurau diweddaraf yn dangos bod Helix, a lansiwyd yn 2016, wedi rhoi hwb economaidd o £355 miliwn i'r diwydiant, wedi helpu i greu 683 o swyddi ac wedi diogelu 3,647 o swyddi. Mae mwy na 700 o fusnesau wedi cael cefnogaeth drwy'r cynllun a datblygwyd bron i 2,100 o gynhyrchion bwyd a diod newydd.


Diolch i'r cyhoeddiad heddiw, bydd y prosiect bellach yn gallu cefnogi gweithgynhyrchwyr mwy yng Nghymru ochr yn ochr â busnesau bach a chanolig sydd eisoes wedi elwa.


Dywedodd Mike Woods, Prif Weithredwr Just Love Food Company:



> Ers i'r cwmni cyswllt ymuno â'r busnes trwy Brosiect Helix mae ein trosiant wedi tyfu dros 65% ac ni fyddai wedi bod yn bosibl heb y strwythurau technegol mwy cadarn hynny sydd ar waith. Mae Prosiect Helix wedi helpu'r busnes i dyfu ac mae wedi helpu i osod sylfaen fydd yn helpu i barhau i dyfu.


Ychwanegodd y Gweinidog:



> Bydd y Cynllun Arloesi Strategol yn sail i Weledigaeth Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer y Diwydiant Bwyd a Diod.
> 
> 
> Fel rhan o'r Prosiect hwn, bydd HELIX, sydd wedi cael effaith gadarnhaol iawn ar ddiwydiant bwyd a diod Cymru, gan helpu cwmnïau i fabwysiadu dull mwy effeithlon a strategol, yn parhau tan fis Mawrth 2005\.

> Mae effaith gadarnhaol y prosiect yn glir i'w weld trwy'r hwb economaidd o £355 miliwn y mae wedi'i roi yn ogystal â nifer y swyddi newydd y mae wedi helpu i'w creu a'r miloedd y mae wedi'u diogelu. Mae hefyd wedi bod yn allweddol wrth uwchsgilio gweithlu Cymru, a chefnogi busnesau i ddatblygu cynnyrch newydd.
