Roy Homent, International Sales Manager at Grant Sous Vide, has celebrated his 45th anniversary at Grant!
Roy began working at our Cambridgeshire offices in 1970 as an administrator in the service department. Since then he has worked in several departments, working his way up to his most recent role of managing sales within Grant’s catering division.
In 2002 Roy played an integral part in the development of Grant Sous Vide. Following a visit to a well known celebrity chef in Bray, he was asked to create a temperature controlled water bath using the same technology as our scientific range to be used for sous vide cooking, an increasingly popular cooking technique used by chefs which involves sealing meat, fish, vegetables or fruit in a vacuum sealed pouch and cooking in a water bath at a constant temperature.
Such was the success of our prototype, that 13 years later and Roy has developed Grant Sous Vide to become a central part of the business and has developed close relationships with a number of leading chefs including Ashley Palmer-Watts, Angela Hartnett, MBE and Marcus Wareing.
Congratulations Roy on 45 years at Grant!
