Merry Christmas from everyone at Bidfood!
In this episode, we’re discussing all things you need to consider as we approach the busy Christmas and New Year period. We’ve conducted some research on Christmas for consumers to understand exactly how they plan to spend it this year and what they want on the menu. We expand on this and look to find solutions for you to take advantage of.
Holly Rogers, Senior Insights and Research Executive and Laura Mason, Senior Campaigns & Brand Manager join the podcast to provide their expert opinion for this one.
