Martin who will, once again, be taking up the role of host for the Business Day, a position he has held in the past.
The dinner host for both Thursday night’s informal networking dinner and Friday night’s Gala and Awards Dinner is Chris Brazier.
ceda director general, Adam Mason, said, “Working with Peter has been, and continues to be a joy.
“His knowledge and contacts book is high class and he really understands our event.
“We received many comments that last year was the best Business Day programme that we have put together – the challenge in 2019 is to raise the bar further.
“Chris knows the Industry inside out and is an effervescent and humorous character and so we are delighted that he will host our Dinners at Conference for the very first time.”
Martin was described as one of the ‘most authoritative and influential commentators’ on the eating and drinking out sector, with 35 years of experience as columnist, editor, media owner, market analyst and board consultant.
He will also deliver his annual ‘State of the Industry’ presentation as part of the Business Day speaker programme.
Brazier is group event director for three industry leading trade shows; lunch!, Casual Dining and Commercial Kitchen and so comes with a ‘wealth’ of inside industry knowledge.
