June 2006 - Top 100 Issue.

For over twelve years Food & Drink Business magazine has provided its readers with a unique insight into the Top 100 food processors throughout Europe. Each June our Managing Editor, Mike Rohan, will analyse manufacturers by turnover. Interviews are held with senior management from the top 10 processors which allows us examine the reasons behind their organisations success.

This is our most popular issue of the year and as such an additional 4,000 copies are printed to meet the extra demand for the Top100 profile. Our research has shown that this particular issue is retained by a large percentage of our readers and utilised as a business tool throughout the year.
