Tessa Stuart the UK's food brand guru

2018 is here and we are kicking it off in style. Last year will be difficult to match in terms of cracking content but we gladly accepted the challenge with a jam-packed show to kick us off for 2018. 

There wasn’t a Turkey, chocolate or block of cheese in-sight for Sue Neslon and Guy Routledge and  Ollie Lloyd from Great British Chefs.

First up, we welcomed somebody who can help you with the January blues. Kimberly Hurd runs the brilliant Tabl website. It’s an online platform for foodies and industry experts to share recipes, showcase new products and much more. Nice stuff.

Another thing that we’re looking forward to in 2018 is the FoodTalk Awards. We held our first event back in June, but we’ll be going bigger and better this time. IFIS will be joining us on the night, and you’ll be able to discuss their work with them then, but in the meantime we were delighted to be joined by Marta Cesar and Joanna Becker who work on the firm’s valuable Escalex database which keeps foodies companies in the know when it comes to the all-important rules and regulations.

Last, but certainly not least, we had a chance to catch-up with Tessa Stuart properly. We’ve met the brand guru quite a few times before but, criminally, never had the pleasure of having her on the show! She tells us how she has helped some massive names to get prime placement along the supermarket aisles.
