News from Fourayes

The team arrive back from Paris.

The highlight of 2011 has been the Fourayes trip to Paris for Food Ingredients Europe. It was well planned, well timed and a fantastic success. Angie Scott takes much of the credit. She designed the stand and arranged for the mountains of croissants to feed the customers tasting jams and fillings and guess what? The Belgians LOVED the Bramley apple taste and Europe officially fell for Banoffee.

“The Bramley apple is something they can’t get in Europe”, says David Hall, Fourayes’ Marketing Consultant. “The Belgians in particular were very excited about the tart taste of the Bramley for fillings and jams and we look forward to working with many new customers in Europe in 2012.”

“The trip went very smoothly and we have masses of follow up work to do now”, says Andy Stokes, Business Development Manager. “We have lots of ideas for developing new products and I’m really pleased all the hard work preparing for the trip over the past few months has paid off.”

Diane McKenzie and Jenny Tunbridge supplied the enticing samples which proved so popular and special thanks too go to Ian Witherden who lent the team the van to drive there and back with all their gear. The FIE team consisted of Angie Scott, David Hall, Peter Cotterill, Phil Acock, Diane Wilson, and Andy Stokes.
