We have ongoing, fruitful relationships with the various trade bodies that represent our customers, such as the Licensed Vintners Association, the Vintners Federation of Ireland and the Irish Hotels Federation.

Once again we were well represented at the annual conferences of the Hotels Federation and the Vintners Federation of Ireland. We continue to maintain and develop good working relationships with a broad range of representative trade bodies and the success of this approach is underlined by our revenue results presented below.
