Formally Chief Executive of Freedom Food Ltd

Leigh Grant is a sales and marketing expert with food industry experience from both a retail and foodservice perspective, combined with a uniquely in depth knowledge of assurance schemes.

Leigh achieved UK Government recognition for Freedom Food as a higher level scheme, achieving unprecedented growth in membership and market share, whilst developing new income streams that enabled the scheme to grow on a self funding basis.

Recognised as an expert speaker in the EU Leigh is a first class communicator with the ability to think and act pragmatically, developing simple and practical solutions to the most complex of issues, at all levels across the supply chain. 

His aim is to assist businesses to develop cost effective, commercially viable Corporate Social Responsibility strategies, that add tangible value to a business. His approach is based on a simple principle – CSR strategies must be commercially sustainable to be relevant.
