Pannon Local Product Cluster was founded on 3 October 2005. by 13 organisations operating in the West-Pannon Region after almosat a year of preparation. The Cluster aims at helping the agricultural and handmade products found and produced in the region by estabishing a comprehensive inventory of them, streamlining their production, unifying their image and design and creating a market for them. One of the main directions of sale is the continuously strengthening local tourism, another is the e-commerce to face the challenges of the future, and the third is the local market built upon local, rural needs. An important objective beside the above is the increase of local employment, the creation of income-generating opportunities in the rural areas through the production of local products.
