Food and Finance Forum

Our next industry forum is scheduled and we’re very excited about not only the topic but the panel of guests we’re lining up for this event.

Food glorious food is a subject close to a lot of our hearts but how does finance work in this industry. How do the manufacturers ensure all our favourites are in stock, in the right places, and at the right time? How did a global pandemic affect the food industry when restaurants were closed, shopping was restricted and customers were locked down at home.

David Malthouse will chat to a panel of industry experts from the world of ice cream to fish and chips to find out how they manage their business and ensure our plates are full.

Food and Finance Forum – 1st July 2022

Join our host, David Malthouse, as he talks to a range of industry experts to find out what drives and affects the food industry. They’ll talk about the challenges the pandemic brought, how they adapted and what it takes to keep bringing food to our tables.

David will ask them about the unique challenges in their industry. He’ll ask about the finance/business side of food manufacturing, supply, and retailing. This session will offer a fascinating insight into how this specific industry operates. This will make it useful for our Level 7 students in terms of case study prep. It will, however, be interesting to all students. It can also be used by our qualified contacts as part of their ongoing CPD.
