Ian Edwards, practice head, food & drink, JLT, said: “This will start with a series of business interruption workshops in 2012. These half-day events, which will be held in
Nottingham, Birmingham, Leeds and Manchester are an excellent way to update food and drink companies on an important area of risk and insurance.”
