With that in mind, in this latest edition of the Onboard Hospitality Podcast, we’re joined by two people who’ve been working hard to make inflight food and beverage safer for those with special dietary needs: Julianne Ponan MBE, founder and CEO of Creative Nature, and Mel Berry, Chief Customer Officer, Vueling.

“We have a mega-range of Crunchits and we're flipping the snacking script. No more snooze-worthy nibbles here...Thai Chilli, Sticky Teriyaki and Sour Cream and Chive,” explains Harry, whose products can be found on easyJet and Eurostar and are stocked by the likes of Ocado and WHSmith. 

Harry started his career in food and drink more than 10 years ago in sales at Cawston Press. He took on a broad variety of roles within the business and was there when the sugar tax was introduced. 

“It was a fascinating time watching the industry demand more on health from the soft drinks category. I had a deep gut feeling that this would be echoed in other categories,” he explains. 

“I left Cawston and started The Savourists with the mission to bring the JIGGLE back to snacking!” he adds.  

In this version of the Onboard Hospitality Podcast Harry talks about the snacks, the travel industry, lessons learnt by attending WTCE in Hamburg and the experience of being present at TickEat in Milton Keynes…as well as lots more.

A people-first tech company, three rocks combines experience within hospitality, data services, and software development and implementation to bring a more effective way of delivering technology to the hospitality industry and wider business sector.  Offering a totally modular experience management system, businesses can create a complete end-to-end CX solution that connects the customer and user journey and transforms their business.

Prior to becoming the Managing Director of three rocks, Scott developed customer ordering and fulfilment solutions at Marks & Spencer, before switching to the restaurant sector with Pizza Hut. There, he led development of the brand’s first online ordering service – which now accounts for more than 70% of sales. He then served as a consultant to several national restaurant groups. 

Scott, alongside his two business partners at three rocks (Matthew Rawlins, CTO and Andrew Kaplan Chief Data Officer), founded three rocks having previously worked together at national restaurant chain, Pizza Hut. The three heads realised that a merger would be the most impactful way to bring the skills of both Adactus Ltd and Six Sevens Solutions together to turbo-charge the skills, knowledge and experience of both brands, and enable three rocks to create a brand new, joined-up customer experience offering to its customers.
