Some of the nation’s most dynamic and exciting brands and online retailers will speak to the conference theme of “grow local, grow global”, discussing their business journeys, building resilience, market opportunities and their sustainability approaches:
- Dan & Simon Gilmour, Co-Managing Directors of John Gilmour Butchers
- Jason Stewart, Head of Marketing at Donald Russell
- Kim Cameron, Founder of Gin Bothy
- Gill Sherwin, Operations Director of Best of British Beer
The speaker line-up will be closed by global influence, sales, collaboration, and leadership speaker Duncan Stevens, to motivate delegates on how to maximise their influence with customers.
