Is your food business consistently building trust in your food standards, staff and sustainability?
In a constantly changing world, consumer trust is an increasing challenge.
I understand the challenges and am here to support you.
My membership programme can help you build a better business
Would you like to reduce your customer complaints, have a better relationship with clients, improve your food safety culture and have well trained and confident staff?
In over 20 years in the agri-food industry I have realised that people need supporting all the way through their careers. I invite consultants and specialists to the group meetings to get a better understanding of key challenges e.g. labour and food regulations.
Investing in business support has several benefits, including higher customer retention, lower complaints, increased quality and confident, trained staff. This in turn allows you to build resilience against future shocks to our food system.

Why this membership is different
Traditional consultancy contracts involve a series of visits to manufacturing sites to carry out audits, write documents for systems and help with problems as they arise. The membership programme dedicates time each month for discussing key industry issues, sharing learnings and best practice and making plans to handle future shocks to the system.
Alone we go faster, together we go further..
Imagine what your business would look like if you spent the time to focus on continuous improvement, personal development of staff and could discuss shared learnings and best practice with your peers in other businesses.

Why work with me?
Over the past 7 years I have been designing food safety systems and providing support to a range of small and medium food businesses.
Prior to consultancy I had a 16 year career in the fresh produce and chilled foods sector. I saw many crises come and go - the use of the supply chain for human trafficking, a range of food poisoning incidents and the unforgettable Horsegate.
The shocks to our food system and incidences affecting food safety are inevitable.
Good communication internally and with peers, well trained staff and access to key industry information are all areas that I can happily help you with.

Why focus on training and mentoring?
Good leaders recognise the value of the people in their business. Having the right technical credentials is important, but soft skills such as communication, influencing and critical thinking are required to be successful in business. Alo Solutions can advise on the training or mentoring that your business needs.
