Yesterday i did my first show of the summer selling olive oil. Despite the French stopping the lorry carrying our latest order of organic produce, meaning it didn't arrive in time for the show, we had a great day and sold plenty of oil.
At the show, we were located in the food hall. The people next to us in there were a Mediterranean business selling nuts and olives (which we also sell as well as the olive oil), this hindered the sales a little but the majority of people who tried our Arbequina Olives bought them and by lunchtime i had my sales patter down to a tee!
We handed out plenty of business cards at the show which will hopefully drive some traffic to our website in the future (www.prima-oliva.co.uk).
Next week, i'll be going around the local farm shops and Delicatessens trying to get my oil stocked. Hopefully i'll sell lots more oil in the next week!
