Reflections on a resounding success at Sustainable Food Factory 2024

As a company with strong social responsibly we were pleased to be one of the first to put our hand up to support this inaugural event organised by Iain McClean of Curious Media.

John Kirwin concluded it was a resounding success:

“The event was supported by a range of companies and delegates from far and wide – all interested in a commitment to carbon/energy reduction in the food industry; the conference opened with a superb presentation by Tristan Fischer the Founder and CEO of Fischer Farms on Vertical Farming and a vision for future sustainable food production. It was perfectly bookended with a Q&A session with Nottingham Forest, Manchester United and England legend, Garry Birtles, on mastering performance under pressure and more importantly, an insight into the legendary manager Brian Clough!

A thoroughly well-planned event in a great location and great catering. Very well done from a standing start – this was a very well-run professional conference. We for one will be supporting future events and in the interim if we can help you reduce your energy and carbon footprint with our range of solution around HVAC in the food production environment then please give me a call on 0113 202 7300.”

Here’s to Sustainability in all its forms.

The phrase ‘Turnkey Solution’ is used extensively in projects, but never has it been better suited than for describing a project by Penmann.
Tom Mitson, Lantmännen Unibake

We found Penmann to have an excellent understanding not only of air conditioning and refrigeration but also of the production process and the logistics that surround it. All timescales were achieved and the systems are working well. I would have no hesitation in recommending Penmann to others.
David Underdown, Sales Director, Rachels Dairy

“This project was my first experience of working with Penmann and I found them to be extremely knowledgeable and flexible, particularly at design stage. The project delivery was very good with great attention to detail paid to the design, overseen by an exceptional project management team. The build quality was excellent. We would certainly use Penmann again on future projects”.
