Successful applicants will also be offered promotional plans and favourable payment terms to help them scale up.
The formal programme follows a strong response to a recent call to arms from Morrisons chief executive David Potts, who encouraged British entrepreneurs with ‘the next big thing’ to get in touch.
Mr Potts said: “There are thousands of people with great ideas but getting them to market at scale is often a long, risky and complicated process.
