We believe that business is about successful relationships based on trust and understanding.
I work in the food business; I started in farming, then moved to retailing.
I spent fifteen years with Tesco; a part of the team that climbed from third in the UK to third in the world.
I did private label work around the world; in fields, factories and boardrooms.
Now I am helping change.
