Richy worked with the centre on a consultancy basis as required in order to develop a number of innovative ideas and to help companies with the commercialisation of the products.

I would highly recommend Richy for a role in seafood innovation. As well as the skills in seafood product development and commercialisation, he is an excellent team member, very easy to work and get along with, extremely reliable and very innovative.

IASC Seafood Ltd Ireland engaged Richy V to identify a target market in the London Markets for a Seafood Unami Enriched Cooking fat.

Richy identified the ideal distribution chains, created a Natural Buzz and approach about the product and his visual representation allowed us to be identified.

Another enjoyable meal – great fresh food, with wonderful presentation and service. Your staff were so relaxed and friendly but did their job so professionally, we were able to sit back, relax and enjoy the evening as much as our guests did. Best wishes.

We found Richy’s professionalism & execution doing live stage demos on the hour every hour for three days really helped to get our brand out there! We were very thankful to Richy & his team. His relentless work ethic, enthusiasm & energy always contribute to his success as a Brand Ambassador.
