UK: British Tomato Conference in full swing
As we speak, the British Tomato Conference is in full swing at the Royal Court Hotel in Coventry. Last night all TGA members and other entrepreneurs in the UK's thriving tomato industry where welcomed with a champagne reception and a conference dinner.


Speaking with the UK growers, we got to learn that the TGA put in a great effort over the last years to promote the local British tomato on the domestic market. UK retailers and the growers are now working closely together in the selection of tasty varieties in order to fulfill the customers demand for a product with added value.
Besides the conference today, the guest also have the possibilities to network and learn the latest from greenhouse suppliers at a small trade show floor.
HortiDaily is also present and will report the speaker program in an after event report. A complete photo report from the British Tomato Conference can be found in Friday's edition of HortiDaily.com
