At this year’s AGM we welcomed a new President and Chair of the non-executive Board, Ian Stone, Chief Commercial Officer and Managing Director of Wiltshire Farm Foods, part of the apetito group. Ian became the first Vice President and Chair early in 2020 and has been instrumental in supporting me through the most difficult of times since the pandemic hit.
Ian has a long history of being very active in the Federation, indeed I first met Ian when we both served on one of the “old” BFFF Committees. I think it is fair to say Ian is a strong advocate for frozen food, having been involved in the market over many years and is keen to support the work the Federation does in supporting members and the wider frozen food industry.
