Day 22 - We're all in this together

Hi, it’s Colin. Just a couple of photos from the growers meeting that we’ve just completed at Hull. Each of the Five groups who supply us is represented there. They’re all cooperatives there and you can see the group chairman and the field managers, the guys who are running the operations in the field.

We hold these meetings so we can have a review of operations to to date, look at prospects and all the rest of it (and also give the growers a chance to air grievances if they’ve got any…). So, it just helps the whole thing go better everybody knows what’s involved.

The idea is to foster a spirit of cooperation as we’re all in this thing together and you can’t be in a job as dynamic as this without everyone pulling in the same direction. The meetings help that process.
