We are delighted to see the patrons for the Festival being true heroes in their own right - Delia, Galton, Carluccio and Marco are all extremely well-known names and we are delighted to be associated with a Festival they believe is worthy of support.



Once again, the Festival in September will provide us with the opportunity to promote our multi-disciplined property consultancy business to a wide audience both across Norfolk and now as a destination event further afield.



We continue to work with businesses across the county and the region and developing opportunities within the food sector, whether it be the raw commodity producers at the farm, processors and many others involved in the food chain.



We believe that the Food Festival for Norfolk is a tremendous opportunity to raise the profile of this wonderful county and I would urge everybody to take the opportunity to participate - there is something for everyone.
