With over 20 years’ experience growing consumer brands across the UK, Europe, and global markets, we specialise in helping businesses expand into new countries, build strong distributor networks, and secure long‑term retail partnerships. Our work is grounded in integrity, authenticity, and relationships that last — built through transparency, trust, and genuine collaboration.
For over twenty years, I’ve helped consumer brands succeed across the UK and Europe — launching products into new markets, building distributor networks, and securing partnerships with major retailers. My career spans FMCG, housewares, and retail, from leading UK and European operations to creating subsidiaries and managing multimillion‑dollar P&Ls.
I’ve opened doors to retailers across the region and guided brands through pricing, compliance, cultural nuance, and the realities of execution. Fluent in several languages and shaped by years living and working across Europe, I bring a global perspective to every project.
Connect UK‑EU is the culmination of that experience — helping brands enter the UK and EU with clarity, confidence, and long‑term success.
