DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Never has there been a better time for businesses to=0D=0A=
consider selling food and drink products into independent retail. Farm shops,=0D=0A=
delis, food emporiums and other independent grocery outlets have worked hard to=0D=0A=
keep the nation well fed during the difficult start to the pandemic, very often=0D=0A=
struggling with their own supply chain and still managing to fill empty shelves=0D=0A=
left by producers that have halted production. As we come out of=0D=0A=
"lockdown" and consumers are happy to travel further afield to these=0D=0A=
outlets, now’s great time to consider approaching the network of retailers that=0D=0A=
value good quality artisan products.=0D=0A=
In this webinar Marcus Carter – founder of the Artisan=0D=0A=
Food Club, will talk you through the success businesses can achieve with sales=0D=0A=

on the shelves of these outlets and it can be daunting approaching this sector=0D=0A=
for the first time and ensuring the buyer you meet value your product as much=0D=0A=
as you do. =0D=0A=
Marcus will cover a range of tips and tricks for getting=0D=0A=
your products onto the shelves of the retailers and suggestions on how to get=0D=0A=
in front of the right buyers so they will be happy to stock your products and=0D=0A=
work with you on any new products you may produce going forward.=0D=0A=
Marcus is one of the top UK experts in this field and is=0D=0A=
regularly looking for new members for his club and fine produce for his key=0D=0A=
clients.=0D=0A=
This=0D=0A=
presentation is delivered in partnership with Business Gateway Growth Hub and=0D=0A=
the Food and Drink Forum and is part-funded by the European Regional=0D=0A=
Development Fund. Places are limited and priority will be given to trading=0D=0A=
