Country Range Group honours members and suppliers

The achievements of Country Range Group’s members and suppliers were honoured at the Country Range Group’s ‘An Evening With’ event earlier this month, with the Frameless immersive art experience in London providing the landscape for the celebrations.

Country Range chief executive Martin Ward and chairman Philip de Ternant.

The evening, which was hosted by actor and comedian Rob Brydon and attracted more than 200 guests, featured a champagne reception and three-course dinner. A raffle for CRG’s chosen charity – The Natasha Allergy Research Foundation – raised over £5,000.

Country Range Group chief executive Martin Ward said: “We strive to make each of our ‘An Evening With’ events even greater each year and I feel we’ve definitely hit new heights with this year’s masterpiece. Guests were not only taken on a culinary journey through the exquisite food served but also a cultural voyage through the experiential and immersive art on show. A massive congratulations to all those who picked up awards on the night and a huge thank you to every single person who has contributed to the group’s successes over the last year.”
