What an inspiring and thought provoking session

We had the pleasure of hosting Wilfred to share his story and his products with employees at Next plc. He sparked a light in many with his candour and wit, encouraging us to have the courage to dream and be pleasantly surprised by results. What an inspiring and thought-provoking session, delivered by a man who can only be described as a force of nature. Incredible!

For me Wilfred is the perfect speaker

For me Wilfred is the perfect speaker. He isn’t one of those entrepreneurs who just dish up clichés. His is a personal story, full of lessons for delegates to take away and put into practice. The methods Wilfred used to take The Black Farmer from a niche, local product to an everyday supermarket brand are a ‘must-hear’ for any business that wants to grow.
