- One of the holes in our business plan >

One of the holes in our business plan, which was undoubtedly the biggest, was that we wanted to start a business in the food industry, but we didn’t have anyone in the company with even the slightest knowledge of the food industry! We needed to have a local chef with loads of experience, and believed in what we were doing because we wouldn’t be able to pay them the salary they would hopefully deserve at this early stage.

We met Richard through a local friend, someone who we met at the Bridge Club. He was the first person we talked to and he came on board straight away. He had a great reputation with over twenty years experience so it was great for us to have him come on board and he brought loads of great things to the company. You work hard to start up a business but every now and then you get a few lucky breaks, and Richard was definitely one of them.
