EEF National Manufacturing Conference 2017

EEF National Manufacturing Conference 2017

Mark represented Grommets at the above event held at the QEII Centre, London.

The Conference centred on the themes of the post “Brexit” global economy and environment in three major areas:

  • Where next for UK Manufacturing;
  • Making Britain the best place to do manufacturing;
  • Digitising supply chains.

There were a number of excellent (and not so excellent) speakers, an accompanying exhibition and ample time for networking. All in all a day well spent. Perhaps the major message that emerged was that the best defence for uncertainty is to be very competitive. To wait and do nothing is not an option.

Carfest Competition Winner – Eden Made The Lucky Guess!

Carfest Competition Winner – Eden Made The Lucky Guess!

We were delighted to meet the winner of our Carfest competition ‘Guess the number of Grommets’ which took place last August at Carfest South, in aid of BBC Children in Need.

Eden, the lucky winner, successfully guessed the number of grommets and won 2 hospitality tickets for himself and his Mum to watch Chelsea FC beat Hull City 2-0 on Sunday. Eden was thrilled with his prize!

Eden was overjoyed with the prize which included a meet and greet, a tasty meal in the Centenary Club, seats in the East Stand plus more food and drink after the match. There was an added bonus of meeting Marco Alonso where Eden manged to get a photo and autograph!

Eden’s mum said; “She couldn’t thank Grommets Ltd enough for the fabulous prize and were so pleased they entered the competition at CarFest South in August.”

After the visit to Stamford Bridge she said; “Eden and I would like to thank you for your limitless care and hospitality at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. It was truly an unforgettable experience and your kind personal touch of meeting us made it unforgettable. Eden was grateful for Olly’s thoughtfulness and is a true credit to you. Thank you again for being part of creating lasting memories in 2017. We hope to see you are CarFest South again.”
