Guild says he's confident as spalls will remain in Suffolk the conversations that we had with the monks and really led us to believe that we actually could look them in the eye and believe that we had shared values and that what we believe was the best thing for the brand moving forward and for that and particularly for Suffolk and for the people 300 years old in 2020 and I honestly believe that we're going to be there at that party celebrating a fantastic story a market trader in eps which says he's been left with no choice but to close his stall at the end of the month it's then they will have to move to Princes Street because of the redevelopment of the Cornhill David Wright who sells donuts says there will be less trade and he can't afford the renting Curry support for. There's nothing like the footfall on the main street queue rely a lot on pressing trade you know going forward in addition the rents.

Radio Suffolk how they feel about it I am really a classical British person. Even if it was very nasty a lot like a cockroach or insect in that I think a puppy had said he would send you back something not right something that I would want to know and if. You could say it nicely and make a scene or anything personal I would do but I have already done it but if it's extreme I would.

This b.b.c. Radio. Thanks for joining us this Monday morning it's suffix prank for show from the b.b.c. And there's sadness and concern this morning as the sale of asport cider to a us drinks giant is confirmed sides are huge rains and it's not a decision that you take lightly and we didn't take it lightly because of a lot of soul searching and a lot of talking and a lot of research to make sure that we were actually making the right decisions Henry guilds and Phil Whitehead from Molson calls on the way a guild one of the same asked spalls also with a cold weekend head we hear how the surviving winter scheme is making a real difference in the county and after last week's Amazing launch support still coming in thick and fast for supper day commands the drinks a b.b.c. Radio itself. So big business news today it's one of Suffolk's most recognisable products asport it's been in the county since 1728 but the family run business has just been sold to the us drinks giant Molson cause the news is be met with sadness from many people worried about what will happen Henry surely a guild from Aspen and Phil Whitehead u.k. Managing director of motion calls are both with me now good morning Gentleman good morning Henry if I can begin with you 1st of all why. We took a decision a year we realized a year ago the speed with which the business had been growing in had been eating up a lot of resource we had to make a lot of investments in it and we felt very year ago 1st to continue with the good work that we've been doing and expanding the business and to make sure that we maintain the integrity of the product that we really need to look at getting some external investment in and we started that sweep looked around to see what the options were a trade deal wasn't top of our list we have to say it was really having met most and cause and talking to them and seeing how they've operated in this country how they've worked with other companies similar to us that we really ultimately decided that they were the best partner Frost moved forward and we had a shared vision and to make sure that we could deliver what we'd started so you know why you're a victim of your own success we're a. Little bit. It's it's a difficult decision to make we could have remained a very very nice brand we chose not to we're very proud that we didn't we're very proud of the work that we've done and we're very comfortable and reassured and confident that actually working with most and cause is going to ensure that stuff is going to be proud of apple cider for many long years to come a lot of people are doubtful about that I have to say on our Facebook page there's a lot of concern really worried that's understandable in terms of what we're going to do with most and causes we need investment into the business and one of the main things we need investment in the business for is to ensure that we can actually keep on making the liquid to the same quality into the same standard and we're comfortable about it's going to happen Ok let me bring in Phil Phil what was so attractive about aspects for you. First and foremost it's a fantastic side of the business has been built brilliantly by great people. And the combination of the side and the people were really attractive to us as we got to know Henry and Barry I think is how he said we share a lot of valleys with the guys and we see a real opportunity to continue to support and build the business in the way that the family have been David generations as I said Henry that there are people who are worried we have a Sandra tradition in this country of selling out to u.s. Firms and products get Chinese to people are worried you know you'll fiddle with asp bills our intention is to continue to invest in the brand in the liquid the manufacturing side and so to continue to grow a spill in the way that it's built the only change we want to make is positive with further investment it's about the brand and the manufacturing facility hopefully creating new jobs in the area very similar to what we've done with the shops business in call more life in the last 5 to 6 years Ok let's just stick to the flavor of it and then we'll move on to the other side of things so you're not going to fiddle with any of the product itself the reason that the products so successful is because it's a tremendous Sajda really stands out for the quality of English side and we would be foolish to change that and we have no intention to often happens as well is that people let you come up and make these promises then a year or so down the line or actually yet we can't sustain this now or a multitude of excuses come up and the business disappears and go somewhere else this is a long term investment from also because with a long term v.a. We think the asco side of brand can be the number one premium side in the u.k. And internationally and that's the reason that we've purchased a business and there's a long term intent to that and so the soap Suffolk tell me what your plans are specifically then for the site in the manufacture. Yes we've got a number of areas of the site that we want to invest in significant investment to make sure the quality of the product remains have it I've got a great capital plan for that and we've also locked out what we're going to Dave Brown perspectives both requiring significant investment which Henry and Barry will continue to support me on right and so we going to be manufactured here will be manufactured elsewhere our intention is that all the manufacturing will continue to be in such that we expand the capacity of the site and invest in the right elements of the process to make sure we keep the quality as brilliant as it's always been I mean if I could come back to you I mean the joy of Aspas this is that people felt that you were a small local company and I'm not just talking about people buying and drinking a here in Suffolk but further afield there was a kind of lovely feel to it you know going to lose that what made it so very special that you were a small company. I don't think so and I reason for that is Phil mentioned shops very down in rock and that was a pivotal turning moment for Barry and I in the whole process shops is a brewery that I think has been running since 9095 and most new acquired it in 2011 and one of the pits is that Phil and his team made in to us was the work that they've done with shops in there actually and maintained its character is maintained its whole it maintained its voice and it was still based firmly in Comal So we went down and we spend a couple of days with the team down there we spend time with the team down there who are with people the most and cause people and the overriding impression we left with was that it was a fantastic investment they were very pleased with the way the business is gone they've maintained their integrity they were able to make more beer and they made me able to make more better beer and that feeling that we got from coming away from Rock really understanding wanted and part way with with Barry and as we said this could really really work and this could really take ask. To the next level as far as the family feel is concerned and we've got a commitment from Phil and to feel both ways that we stay very very closely involved in a you know we're passionate about the product about asp about the people in it about Suffolk and we want to stay there and make sure that we deliver on that moving forward and it's what helps is having a large multinational at Mawson cause involved is you can actually maintain integrity when we go in and we talk to customers We're just selling cider we've got a military now to be part of a portfolio which makes those conversations about the quality and. The region ality is much much easier to make and you can make the much more for some of your drinkers say you've sold your soul you know you've sold out to the big boys pull cars but in such foreign ownership is eventually a bad thing see coalmines of nor age Sally's been in touch it's absolutely disgraceful selling out to the Americans American certainly like insider look what happened to can't brace there are a few others like that well you know I get it checked yes we completely accept Unilever and what happened with Coleman's and that's a very very sad thing to have happened and also Kraft Cadbury's that was disgraceful I think how they behaved it but those are not family businesses and what people forget about most in causing this can through very strongly in the conversations that we were having with him is they may be a multinational they may be listed on the New York Stock Exchange but actually a majority of those shares are controlled by the most in the course family they're not specifically a family business but they have family values way above and beyond some of the brands that you're actually talking about in terms of how some American companies do work. And finally what about your your staff your employees that you have here when we made an announcement on Friday and. The response has been overwhelmingly positive I think they're pleased we're going to still be involved in the business moving from. And I think they can genuinely see the business case for getting a good investment in the business so that we can. Get the plan absolutely world class and give them the platform to be able to grow as well as as individuals and as part of the business Ok we'll leave it there for now thank you both very much indeed guild from. Paul Whitehead from course on the deal which sees passports now part of course it's Mark Murphy at breakfast and it's 60 minutes past . That is our top story this morning the American company which is cider has told me it has no intention of fiddling with the recipe the company's been in Suffolk since 1728 stories amaze expected to make several changes to her cabinet seen today in the most extensive reshuffle since she became prime minister and many of Hollywood's biggest stars dressed in black for the Golden Globe Awards last night to show their support the campaigns against sexual harassment in sporting and have lost the 5th and final Ashes Test by an innings in 123 runs in Sydney he completes a crushing 4 nailed series defeat to Australia coming up with a cold spell around at the moment a reminder that help is out there if you're struggling to afford to keep your heating on details coming up very shortly the weather frosty in the west at 1st but a dry start some sunshine to begin with but becoming quickly cloudy through the morning staying dry though through the day feeling bitterly cold in the wind along the coast and the top temperatures today for Suffolk just 5 Celsius 41 Fahrenheit.
