“I have worked with John when he was employed by Kerry and Pecan Deluxe. John has an excellent balance of culinary skills (sweet, savory and beyond), combined with a great understanding of consumer insights and business strategy (can we make, can we sell it, can we make money). John thinks out of the the box and respectfully challenges the status quo. John has a wonderful cultural awareness which enhances his palate. You can count John to bring excitement to projects and very good collaboration.”

How can you identify the most important trends for forecasting?
I look for Tremors everyday around the world. These Tremors can come from across categories. You have to know and understand how to merge these tremors and turn them into Food & Beverage wins. When you’re innovating, you can’t always hide behind data to launch a new product. I use Data as hindsight and the sense to (Eat the Streets) for foresight.
