We held our two day 70th Anniversary 'Celebration of Success' Exhibition on Wednesday 10th and Thursday 11th June at our premises in Ferguson Drive, Lisburn. Our new covered loading bay was transformed into an impressive exhibition hall which housed over 20 exhibitor stands, a cafe and seminar room. Suppliers from all over Europe exhibited, introducing new products and ideas to over 400 customers and potential customers that attended over the two days.
Our new test bakery and kitchen was officially opened by Department of Enterprise, Trade and Investment Minister, Jonathan Bell. Finbar, our Technical Manager took customers on a tour of the new test bakery and kitchen every hour. Throughout the two days there were many seminars for customers to attend on topical subjects including gluten free, trends and salt reduction.
Customers enjoyed demonstrations from suppliers, special offers, samples and complimentary food and beverages at our café. The exhibition was a great opportunity for us to meet face to face with customers and to introduce them to suppliers, who presented them with many new products and ideas that they could use and apply in their own businesses.
After the first day of the exhibition we hosted a very special celebratory dinner at Hillsborough Castle for attending suppliers and all of our staff.
Thank you to everyone who attended the exhibition and to our suppliers who helped to make it a great success. We look forward to the next 70 years in business.
