Significant events

“2024 was a year of investment for Campden BRI with improvements in infrastructure and systems being launched as well as a strategic review of our services and research requirements.”
“A major programme is being implemented to improve our internal processes and procedures to enable Campden BRI to adapt to the evolution that is ever present in the food and drink sector, to improve the competitiveness of the our services and enable Campden BRI to remain at the heart of our Members' requirements.”
“The difficult decision was taken in January 2024 to consult on the closure of our Nutfield site which subsequently led to the site being fully decommissioned in July. This consolidation of our analytical services to our Chipping Campden site has delivered operational resilience and an opportunity to offer a superior service to our brewing members.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
