New Sponsors Get Food Festival Sizzling in 2010
By Effective Communication
Food lovers in South Wales can get a date in their diaries, as the Cowbridge Food and Drink Festival announces its return in 2010, with the addition of two major new sponsors.
Sigma 3 Kitchens and Filco Supermarkets will sponsor the sixth Cowbridge Food and Drink Festival, which takes place on October 30th and 31st this year.
South Wales based retailer and manufacturer Sigma 3 provide high-quality, stylish kitchens at affordable prices, and will sponsor the Food Demonstration Area at this year’s festival. Last year’s event saw demonstrations from local producers, restaurant chefs, and acclaimed food writers, and the 2010 festival promises equal variety, with plenty of opportunity for audience tastings and participation.
Filco Supermarkets, a family run-business with eight stores across South Wales, will sponsor the Wine and Cheese Marquee, where Filco will be presenting and sampling their own range of Welsh cheese and fine wine.
Other festival favourites returning this year include the Champagne tent, with live music throughout the festival weekend, and the main area where a huge variety of local and national exhibitors will showcase some of Britain’s finest food and drink.
Bethan Barnfield, Marketing Manager at Sigma 3 Kitchens said: “As a successful Welsh business, we’re pleased to be associated with a thriving Welsh event. The Cowbridge Food and Drink Festival is synonymous with quality exhibitors and products, and also attracts people from a large area who have an interest in food, drink and perhaps cooking, so also appreciate quality kitchens.”
Simon Hunt, Director of Filco Supermarkets added: “We are delighted to have been given the opportunity to sponsor the Cowbridge Food and Drink Festival 2010, and proud to support such an important Cowbridge event. The Cowbridge food festival is fast becoming one of the main events in the Cowbridge calendar, and the festival is a great opportunity for our business to showcase some of the best “Cowbridge Food Festival 2010” products throughout the year.”
Food and Drink Festival Chairman John Davies commented, “This sponsorship allows the food demonstrations to continue in the Town Hall Car Park offering a fantastic showcase to local chefs and restaurateurs and we are very grateful to Sigma 3 for their support. Similarly, Filco Supermarkets’ support allows visitors to experience some fantastic Welsh produce at the festival at the Wine and Cheese Marquee, which is always hugely popular. ”
