Don’t miss your chance to attend! If the opinion polls are accurate, the SNP will win May’s election, and with it a quarter of a century in power. Why does the SNP keep winning? How well will Reform perform? Could the mainstream parties be relegated to fourth, fifth or even sixth place? And what does John Swinney’s first mandate mean for the Scottish business community?
What to expect? Join us as our Managing Partner, Andrew Diamond, welcomes Andy Maciver who will talk us through it all. |

Free masterclass: maximise BBQ sales this season
BBQ season is one of the biggest sales opportunities in the butcher’s calendar.
When customers are planning gatherings, family meals and weekend entertaining, they’re actively looking for products that feel exciting, easy and worth spending more on.
The challenge?
Too many BBQ ranges end up looking the same.
The same burgers.
The same sausages.
The same marinades.
And when that happens….. customers will always default to price rather than value.
That’s why National Craft Butchers has partnered with Innovative Food Ingredients to bring members a free BBQ Range Masterclass at 3.30pm on Monday 27th April.
It’s happening on Zoom and in this practical 30 minute session, we’ll cover:
✔ How to use Flavour Atlas to create standout BBQ products
✔ Simple ways to elevate your range and increase value per sale
✔ Practical counter tips to help customers trade up and spend more
This is all about adding value, making smarter range decisions and helping your counter work harder this BBQ season.
