What PETER'S YARD Say:
"Year on year Peter's Yard crispbread sales are 80% up and we are spoilt for choice in terms of further opportunities for expansion. As a growing business we believe it is essential not to spread resources too thinly across too many priorities.
Working with Gourmet Partners has allowed us to enter export markets in a controlled and focused way with a professional and experienced team and without it detracting from the important work we are doing to build the brand here in the UK.”
