Our emergency board meeting... with the best office view in town! 🌊❤️
After everything that's happened with the factory over the past few days, I called an urgent team meeting this morning.
No boardroom. No fancy office. Just four women, a picnic bench overlooking the sea, croissants (thanks Babs 🥐), drinks (thanks Jodie 🧃), plenty of notebooks... and a determination that we're going to get through this together.
I honestly can't tell you how lucky I feel to have this team. ❤️
We talked through the challenges, the options, and most importantly... the opportunities.
Whilst production is paused and we're working through the factory issues, we've agreed our focus has to be on making the shop as successful as possible. That means putting all our energy into the things we can offer right now – our Picky Boxes, Ploughman's Lunches, Pie Bar, deli counter, grazing boxes and everything else you've all been enjoying. We do still have a limited stock of pies available, but once they're gone we'll update everyone on the next steps for production.
By the end of the meeting, everyone was buzzing with ideas. I walked away feeling lighter than I have in days.
Sometimes you don't need all the answers... you just need the right people around the table.
Thank you to Babs, Ness and Jodie for your positivity, honesty and determination. You reminded me today that we're not facing this alone. 💛
Tomorrow I'll be doing a video to share some of the ideas we've come up with, and I'd also love to hear your thoughts too. This business has always been built with the support of our amazing community, and together we'll get through this.
Watch this space... we've got a plan. 💪🥧
