Producer Tastings:
While this is not a formal producer showcase, a number of the Tesco buyers have expressed a willingness to look at product samples. If you intend to taste product, you must use a branded tasting stand and book a slot [email protected] (max 8 tasting slots). This is simply a meet and greet opportunity with no guarantees of a listing.
