Gordan Newlands has been appointed as the new manager of the Q Guild, having previously been an active member for six years, until 2010.
He returns with experience as director of operations at Bidvest Campbell Brothers, based in Bonnyrigg, Midlothian, who supply meat, seafood and other produce to the UK catering industry.
Newlands said: “I am delighted to be back in among some of the best butchers in Britain. All are at the top end of their game, their pedigree is second to none and I want to continue to help enhance the undoubted craftsmanship of our Q Guild butchers.
“Membership is also a priority of my job and I will be seeking not only to consolidate the existing membership, but also to introduce new members to the virtues of being a Q Guild butcher. I will also be keeping in touch with our corporate members. They are crucial to the Q Guild membership and an integral part of the team,” he added.
