They brought a Chairman on board – Peter Chappelow. He was there throughout the ownership. He was very good, invaluable in year one. He realised what we needed as a business – simplicity, practical solutions and ‘a blueprint for growth’. He also introduced me to an individual who I hired and who rapidly became a key director"
Simon Williamson, former CEO of Bounty
