Williams live at Hotelympia

Orbit advert 3Salon_schedule_ad_FW2:Layout 1.qxdUK: Williams and sister company Falcon are to sponsor the Salon Culinaire and Cost Sector Catering Live at Hotelympia.

The events at the forthcoming Hotelympia show at Excel, London, from April 28 to May 1. feature live food demonstrations with the chefs relying on quality equipment to put on the best show.

“We’re very pleased to have been asked once again to participate in both these dynamic events,” says Malcolm Harling, sales and marketing director at Williams. “The Salon Culinaire is obviously one of the key visitor attractions at Hotelympia and is always an exciting showcase, even more so this year with the improvements to the programme. Cost Sector Live is also going to be very interesting, with chefs producing wonderful looking and tasting food, focusing on health and nutritional standards.”

Williams and Falcon have been supplying equipment for the Salon Culinaire for over ten years. “Whilst being asked to provide the equipment for such a high profile, high-pressure event is obviously a great compliment, our sponsorship is also an excellent way for us to give something back to the industry,” says Malcolm.

Williams is providing its Jade cabinets for the main refrigerated and freezer storage for the two events.
