Soups you, sir

Article Abstract:

New Covent Garden Soup Company managing director, William Kendall, was appointed to his post in 1992. The company had seen increasing demand, but was making a loss, and Kendall has helped the company to expand. The company holds a 44% stake in the United Kingdom market for fresh soup, and is a market leader. New production facilities were opened in Peterborough, England, in 1995 and a turnover of 20 million pounds sterling is forecast for 1998 compared to 2.5 million pounds for 1992.

A woman of note

Article Abstract:

Stationery retailer Smythson is performing better than some other areas of the John Menzies group, according to managing director Sarah Elton. She has become respected for her forward-thinking style of management, and has even gone as far as to allow some staff to work four-day weeks. She has been a driving force behind a number of key changes at Smythson, including an outlet at Heathrow's Terminal Four, which is expected to lead to a 25% increase in sales.
