I was honoured to be asked to speak at last week’s NPD Food Conference in Peterborough.  It was a half day conference organised by Roythornes Solicitors and had a packed agenda covering everything from innovation to design to buying.

The speakers were:

• Robert Kedzlie, NPD Direct
• Michael Bennet, Pelican PR
• Graham Childs, Childs Design
• Peter Bennett, Roythornes
• Nicola Berry, Lincolnshire Co-op
• [and me!]

The conference was really busy and had attracted delegates from far and wide.  It was a great one-stop-shop for getting some great information about how to get not only going, but also growing in the world of food.

The conference promised: ‘the NPD Food Conference covers the whole development process from kitchen concept to supermarket shelf.  Our speakers bring years of experience int he food sector together under one roof and whether you are looking to expand your range, develop new markets or set out for the first time, this conference will have something for you’.

I guess I can’t count myself as a ‘newbie’ any more…….though it still seems so new most of the time[!]  I learned loads just listening, and came away having jotted down lots of ‘to do’s’.

There was so much fab information that I’ll  do a daily blog this week with some of the nuggets of information!
