We always like to break new ground and that’s why we were delighted to be the only Caribbean company exhibiting at the first ever 'lunch!' show in London.

Held at Old Billingsgate, the two-day show was for shopkeepers and business managers looking to develop their lunchtime trade, particularly in the fast-growing food to go market.

Our specially designed stand featured a selection of our best-selling products, including the new type of Nurishment that's set to take the market by storm (more details to follow on this soon).

Enquiries came flooding in thick and fast and we’re now busy supplying people with more details on our products.

Thanks to everyone who visited our stand and for helping to make the show such as success.
