With over 30 years of experience in the foodservice industry, Anna started her career as a trainee customer assistant at Pal International before moving into a sales manager position. Now at Bidfood, Anna has spent over a decade supporting customers in the travel, leisure and pub sectors.
Anna, who has worked at Bidfood for 11 years and been a member of the FPA for over ten years, took on the additional roles earlier this year.
In her new roles, she’ll be involved in membership engagement to ensure their needs are met, looking into businesses to join, as well as handling claims, such as greenwashing, reported to the FPA.
Commenting on her new role, Anna said: “I am extremely proud of this acknowledgement and what it means for Bidfood. I’m always working to make sure that Bidfood remains relevant within the FPA, building our profile, reputation and credibility with customers.
“It will be a challenge, but it’s a task I'm more than willing to take as this, along with the packaging degree I’m starting next year, will provide me with the tools I need to put some of the strategic plans in place at Bidfood and the FPA. We want Bidfood to be the point of reference for packaging-associated schemes and legislation like the single-use plastic ban and the potential, upcoming DRS.”
