City Food Lecture 2023

about 1 year ago by

​.The City Food & Drink Lecture is an annual, invitation-only high-profile fixture in the City of London and international food industry calendars. The Lecture is delivered by a leading figure in the British food business who is invited to speak about the issues they regard as most important in shaping the way food is produced, distributed, marketed, sold and consumed. An expert panel then debates and explores the subject as well as wider questions from the audience.

With our Founder, Guy, being a member of the Worshipful Company of Fruiterers, we’re very lucky to get the opportunity to attend.

Held in the Great Hall at the prestigious Guildhall the hybrid event is attended live by 550 and a further 300 virtual audience from around the world. The City Food & Drink Lecture is organised by the eight City livery companies whose roots are in the food industry – namely the Worshipful Companies of Bakers, Butchers, Cooks, Distillers, Farmers, Fishmongers, Fruiterers, Poulters.

CEO, Andrew, comments;
