Dear Reader,

Food Manufacture is running a survey of supply chain and logistics professionals to inform the contents of a special supplement that we plan to publish in the October 2016 issue of Food Manufacture magazine. The aim of the survey, compiled in association with Hughenden Consulting, is to gauge views on changing food and drink supply chain priorities – from the use of outsourced logistics and warehousing to their biggest supply chain challenges and changing customer needs.

I would be grateful if you would take a few moments to complete the questionnaire. As a small incentive for answering our three-minute survey, all complete responses will automatically be entered in a prize draw to win an Amazon voucher worth £100.

We will communicate the name of the lucky winner in the October 2016 issue of Food Manufacture as well as on www.foodmanufacture.co.uk. However, I would like to reassure you of the anonymity of your response. No mention will be made of either you or your company in the published results. We are solely looking for general trends that are of interest to our readership.


Thank you for your assistance

Rick Pendrous
