Foodnet Ltd is a fast growing international food
trading and production company based in The Old
Grammar School at 3/7 Market Square, Amersham, a
property bought and owned by the company's pension
fund. It is interesting that the offices form the
old original grammar school of the town, and on
renovating the offices the original carvings of
initials made by errant schoolboys in the 1600's
were found preserved in some of the woodwork and
stonework. These are exhibited within the offices
and as the likes of William Penn, founder of
Pennsylvania went to school in the town, generate
much interest from trade visitors.
Experience
With over forty-five years of experience in the
food trade, Roddy Owen, heads up the company. The
rate of growth in turnover and profit has been
spectacular but the group have been delighted more
than anything else in the loyalty, firm
friendships and business relationships they have
managed to foster with leading manufacturers,
clients and suppliers around the world.
