COMMENT

“The greatest challenge facing the speciality food sector is managing growth”

Jonathan Knight is chief executive of the Regional Food Group for Yorkshire and the Humber and its campaigning brand deliciouslyorkshire.

The north of England prides itself on having the greatest variety and range of speciality food and drink products, coupled with some of the largest food manufacturing companies within the UK.

Yorkshire in particular has a great hunger for speciality food, which means we see more successes than failures when businesses tap into the sector.

Increasing demand within the sector means that what was once fringe is now mainstream, with customer preferences and desires always developing and changing.

Our current deliciouslyorkshire supreme product champion Yummy Yorkshire Ice Cream is a great example of a newcomer successfully entering a competitive market.

Innovation Vouchers [grants of up to £3,000 for SMEs, funded by Yorkshire Forward and the European Regional Development Fund] have been used to stimulate development activity within the speciality produce sector, to keep up with USPs from the retail, hospitality and foodservice sectors. However,

hurdles can be encountered when producers gallop down this track without ensuring a market review and gap analysis is carried out before the new product development begins.

The greatest challenge facing the speciality food sector is managing growth and moving from the kitchen table to industrial production. This brings huge changes that need to be carefully thought through. Some producers struggle to manage the new balance of keeping existing independents happy whilst dealing with the multiples. In addition, the extra costs incurred require increased volumes of product, which can result in the authenticity and point of difference in some produce suffering. Some producers get around this by introducing a new brand specifically for the multiples and by innovatively addressing labelling and packaging options.

Effective distribution always remains a challenge when fine food producers are growing. Many artisan producers are keen to make the deliveries themselves to maximise the sales process and protect customer

relationships and the brand. However, they must consider other options that could result in their business running more efficiently and effectively. We are looking at a variety of pilot schemes to identify more efficient distribution methods for producers.

The move from artisan into small and medium fine food producers is part of the ongoing and healthy cycle within the speciality food sector. As many producers grow successfully and manage to handle the transition, room is made for newcomers to enter the market.

Legislation within the sector still remains confusing, meaning the route to assistance and funding to achieve growth can be overly complex. Furthermore, current government uncertainties contribute to an unsettling feeling within this area as funding for the valuable work that the food groups undertake comes under threat.

However, the growing understanding of the need for a healthy, productive local food economy is not lost on all political parties and we are confident of continued support.”

As the north’s finest speciality food firms gather in Harrogate, Regional Food Group chief executive JONATHAN KNIGHT sums up the challenges they face in the coming year



Once again, we’ve lined up a great programme of FREE tastings, workshops and interactive seminars, from Italian olive oil tasting to a masterclass in marketing through social networking. Check out the timetable below to make sure you catch the sessions that interest you most.

greattastelive! programme of events

SUNDAY JUNE 20

13.00 - 14.00 BREWING UP A STORM – THE NEXT GENERATION OF BREWED COFFEE Damian Blackburn

This hands-on seminar by Damian Blackburn from independent coffee roasters Grumpy Mule will examine the movement towards high quality, single origin coffees showing how they’re produced, traded, roasted and marketed. We’ll look at Arabica coffee varietals, hear producers’ stories and look at how new brewing methods are taking the specialty coffee sector by storm - and how you can take advantage of this in your coffee shop, deli or speciality food store. We’ll taste an array of the world’s very finest coffees including what’s described as the “world’s best coffee” –the fabled Esmeralda Special from Panama.

14.00 - 15.00 HOW TO MAKE HAMPERS & GIFT BASKETS WORK FOR YOU Arona Khan

International gift-wrapping and merchandising expert Arona Khan, brought to Harrogate by www.thewbc.co.uk demonstrates how hampers and gift packaging will add perceived value to your products and increase sales throughout the year. Arona will demonstrate easy techniques to show how to use gift hampers to move stock and improve margins.

MONDAY JUNE 21

10.30 - 11.30 A MARGINAL AFFAIR – MAKE MONEY IN YOUR FINE FOOD STORE Charlie Turnbull

Charlie will be offering a bite-size training session based on the Guild’s Retail Ready course. The training programme is designed to equip managers of prospective, new or developing delis and farm shops with the business essentials to control margins of fine food and drink.

11.30 – 12.30 LIQUID GOLD: A TOUR THROUGH OLIVE OILS Antonio Tomassini

Fruttato forte? Armonioso? Antonio Tomassini takes you on a tour of extra virgin olive oils, explaining some of the common but little understood terms to describe a product that can range from dense and intense to peppery and bitter or clear and light. Antonio will discuss what he descibes as the “master role” played by his home country, Italy, in Mediterranean extra virgin olive oil production. He will also try to answer the question that baffles many Italians: how is it possible that a 250ml bottle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil lasts more than three months in an English household?

12.30 - 13.30 LOG ON, TUNE IN AND ADD CLOUT Dom Lane

The way in which consumers and brands interact is changing as technology develops. Consumers are media savvy, sceptical about marketing and suffer information overload. At the same time, social media allows them to review and recommend on their own terms – word of mouth and shared experience are now the most important ingredients in the marketing mix. Dom Lane, head of food and drink at communications agency, Bray Leino, will explore how online communities can be used to engage with consumers and reach wider markets.

13.45 - 14.45 FEED THE DRAGON John Farrand

In the annual highlight of Great Taste Live, we’re again pitting the bravest of our Harrogate exhibitors against a ‘Dragon’s Den’-style panel of top food buyers. This year’s Dragons are: Duncan Hider, Hider Foods, Claire Mossford of Harvey Nichols, Stuart Gates of Harrods, Georgie Mason of Gonalston Farm Shop and Sangita Tryner of Delilah Fine Foods.

NEW TO HARROGATE

Lancashire Sauce crosses the great divideBoldly billed as “probably the most versatile sauce in the world,” Entwistle’s Lancashire Sauce (stand 268) is crossing the Pennines to Harrogate this month.

It follows recent sales successes that will see it on sale at Booths supermarkets in the North West, and it will also be available to speciality food shops through distributor Hider Food Imports from July.

Owner David Entwistle is delighted with the success his family recipe sauce is enjoying. As well as being available all over Lancashire, from Oswaldtwistle Mills in Accrington to further afield, the sauce is also sold nationwide through Lakeland.

The company is now looking to move into a larger unit in the same area and to further automate production in the coming months. “We’ve had requests for the sauce from all over the country but

getting product to these customers has been a problem,” says Entwistle. Having a distributor will help, of course, but he is still interested in talking to other distributors at the Harrogate show.

Currently, Entwistle and his wife operate the business from their delicatessen in Ramsbottom. “Two years ago, I put one bottle of sauce on the counter which sold out immediately and we’ve been selling more and more each day since,” he says.

Entwistle claims the sauce is similar to Worcestershire sauce as the very difficult to describe the taste. It is a vinegar based, mildly spiced condiment which can be used in the same way as salt, pepper or vinegar or it can be used as a marinade or as an ingredient in cooking. Either way, it is said to bring out the flavour of whatever food it is used with.

The recipe is one that Entwistle has inherited from his Grandma. “My Mum and Dad used to make it at home in Accrington and I started making it at the deli in 2005, four years after we opened our doors,” he explains.

The product was rebranded in 2008 with new labels.

“We have no idea where this recipe came from as it has a blend of spices that is surprising for the 1930s,” says Entwistle, “but it is truly a unique sauce.”www.lancashiresauce.co.uk

NEW TO HARROGATE

Leeds chocolatier with a ‘visually amazing’ rangeYou might think that setting up a premium handmade chocolate company at the start of a recession would be terrible timing, but after two years in business, Leeds-based Lauden Chocolates (stand 210) seems to have shrugged off the downturn.

It now sells all over the UK but, interestingly, is using the Harrogate show to target more local fine food shops, hotels and restaurants.

Co-owner Stephen Trigg says: “We have just started to sell our products to Harewood House and they were surprised to find our fine chocolate was made on their doorstep. We want to let local people know they have a specialist company in the area.”

Lauden does not have its own shop and retails only through its website. “We decided to concentrate on our wholesale business,” says Trigg “but we exhibit at consumer shows like BBC Good Food to create customer awareness.”

Trigg and his wife Sun started making their strikingly

decorated chocolates when they were unable to buy anything like them in the north of England.

Sun is the chocolatier and won bronze at the Academy of Chocolate awards last year in the category of best dark truffle (unflavoured).

A Singaporean, her love of chocolate comes from living for 10 years in Belgium and she combines both English and Asian ingredients in recipes such as raspberry & rose and lemongrass.

The couple believes the chocolate industry is undergoing a revolution as the customers are increasingly recognising real quality chocolates. “Much like a good quality bottle of wine, once you have tasted the finest, you cannot go back,” says Trigg.

Trigg says it is hard to say if the company was adversely effected by the recession, as it is a new venture. However, he feels people are treating themselves to a quality box of chocs rather than, say, going out for a meal.

“Our chocolates are visually amazing as we print in cocoa butter,” says Trigg “and we use quality couverture to guarantee taste.”www.laudenchocolate.com

NEW TO HARROGATE

Hot dog offers great British benefitsFirst time exhibitor Lishmans of Ilkley (stand 218) is launching The Great British Hot Dog Company to tap into the lucrative food-on-the-go market. This traditional family butcher describes its new product as “posh junk food” and has developed the hot dog from 100% local pork with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.

Owner David Lishman thinks his hot dog is an easy add-on for speciality food shops. “Everyone can benefit from offering hot food,” says Lishman, “and these high quality hot dogs can be heated on existing technology within a business.”

Lishmans has a reputation for quality sausages and the hot dog is a further development of this. The company also supplies bacon, ham and black pudding to shops and caterers by mail order, including Harvey Nichols in Leeds.

Lishman says the traditional butcher has seen a rise

in interest from the public, even during the credit crunch. “People are more discerning but also more careful during the recession,” he says. “Because we offer a far wider range of cuts than a supermarket, as well as quality, people still come to us.”

Lishman is also staging regular butchery classes for the general public in a new shop at tourist spot Bolton Abbey near Skipton. “We are demystifying the pig and teaching people about the different cuts of meat on these courses as well as making products such as patés and pork scratchings,” says Lishman. The courses are proving to be very popular.

The retail butchery was started by Lishman 25 years ago “because I was 21 and had no fear” and today occupies three shops knocked into one as well as a production unit and the new shop near Skipton.

At Harrogate, the company will also be exhibiting a wide range of Spanish products from the D’Ellitte

Export Consortium, for which the company is exclusive representative in the north of England. “These Spanish products such as hams, chorizos and olives sell very well in our shops and we can offer them in a range of pack formats,” says Lishman. “The long shelflife offered on many of the cured products means there’s no wastage for deli owners.”www.lishmansonline.co.uk
