The Food & Drink Forum has appointed Fiona Anderson as its new md. Andreson, who was previously The Forum’s operations manager, took up her new position at the beginning of June.

The Food & Drink Forum, which supports and champions the food and drink sector across the East Midlands, has created the new appointment in response to internal structural changes, as well as outside influences.

The new structure that’s been put in place will help The Forum to raise extra commercial income, help towards financial independence, and meet the new East Midlands Development Agency criteria for business, it claims.

Forum manager Keith Taylor takes on a new role of focusing on commercial development ahead of his planned retirement next year.
