About Me

I am dedicated to linking artisan producers with farm shops and delis. My current focus is on personally delivering and presenting the highest quality products to geographically curated independent retailers.

I have an extensive background in business development and sales, latterly focusing on the thriving artisan sector of the food and drinks industry.

​

The carefully selected regional reach of ArtisanLink is curated by me, leveraging my personal knowledge of the independent retailers (and not relying on algorithms!).

If you are a busy artisan producer looking to engage an established food sales professional to promote your artisan product through my attentive and effective sample delivery service, please contact me.

​

I'm also the Ambassador for Fabulous Farm Shops, the online directory helping connect farm shops to producers.
