Another great event, as ever, demanding yet intensely rewarding. Ten years on we have yet to find any other event that comes close to the Catering & Hospitality Forum in terms of effectiveness or payback on investment.

It has enabled me to carry out 6 months worth of meetings in one go. A great event.

All my meetings generated a genuine reason to follow up with delegates to discuss real business opportunities.

A packed two and a half days, with interesting and diverse potential customers – it would have taken me at least 6 months to have got to see these customers using normal methods – I would recommend it to small to medium size companies who don’t have a massive sales resource.

Very good value in terms of time spent with quality, committed suppliers. Can do more relevant business in 3 days than 6 months alternatively.

For a first time attendance I was overall impressed and would recommend to anyone.

Top quality industry contacts gave Punjana Tea an outstanding opportunity to obtain a better understanding of the Catering and Hospitality market as well as developing business building contacts with a range of potential customers - great value for money, great environment, we will be back!

Due to investments both in terms of manufacturing, equipment and systems at Hazeldene Foods over the last couple of years, this year’s Catering Forum was seen as our official launch into foodservice. We had over 50 meetings over the course of the three days, most of which were exactly who we were targeting. We have made some strong contacts and secured a number of very positive ongoing meetings that we are confident will lead to significant business opportunities, therefore our “launch” has been so far a successful one.

Once again a very well run event particularly enjoyed the informality of the food court at lunch time.

I arrived feeling a little sceptical and not wanting to be 'Sold To'. I was more on a mission to gather market research (product, supply base, commodity market, economics, innovation, etc). Largely this has been fulfilled and I am even able to take a few good ideas away that can probably be pursued. Scepticism dashed!
