At Food and Beverage Expert, our story began with a passion for helping businesses succeed. Having worked for specialist food and drink sales agencies for over 10 years, Rachel decided to start her own business in October 2023 after seeing a need for a personalised, results-driven consulting service. So she set out to create a company that would meet that need.
Today, we continue to uphold that same passion and commitment. We are representing food and drink brands within FMCG retail, notably, Major Multiple Grocers, and have a significant track record in helping SME and challenger brands to scale up. We have successfully launched several brands into the UK Grocery sector.
Thanks to time spent working within FMCG sales and marketing (over 20 years) Rachel has built up a large network of industry professionals that she work closely with. These include those working in specialist agencies (in their sectors), marketing, category insight, brand activation and shopper insights.
Having a soft spot for the finer things in life has allowed Rachel to develop an affection for prestige retail and so securing listings with the likes of Harvey Nichols and Selfridges.
Our small team at Food and Beverage Expert is made up of highly skilled professionals with diverse backgrounds. We work together to provide our clients with tailored solutions that meet their unique needs within the industry.
