“We had reached a point with our business when we recognised that we need to make some major investment to ensure we could move to the next level. The help Alan gave us through a well thought out business plan enabled us to acquire the funding we required both conventional and grant aided. However the next level was only achieved with the guidance and support Alan brought to the business, realizing our aims within two years not the four years required by DEFRA and the EU granting agencies.”

“As a family business we had already recognised that we needed to generate an alternative source of income. We had come up with the idea of producing our own ice cream, which would enable us to utilise our own milk. Having come up with the idea we were unsure how to go about implementing it. Alan provided us with some marketing advice, which reaffirmed our thoughts that there was an opportunity for farm made ice cream. Alan then help prepare a business plan which allowed to acquire some grant funding which enabled us to install the necessary equipment and facilities. Alan has continued to be available for us to bounce ideas off and help grow the product and the brand.”
