Dear friends, We have started the year 2022 with lots of energy and, above all, high hopes for the world to return to a certain level of normality after the pandemic, but it looks like that feeling has – unfortunately - held up only for a short time… Nevertheless, at S3 we continue working intensively and in high spirits, preparing among others yet another Newsletter full of interesting topics.
In terms of business news, we are happy to report on quite a bit of media attention, as our readers will find out in the following posts. As far as sourcing goes, we will highlight both some projects with which we have accumulated already a lot of experience, as well as with new topics, like machinery. In the business teaching area, the focus will be on the implementation of a variety of international initiatives, linked to Belgium, France and the U.S.A. And, last but not least, we will report on the imports of Spanish wines in the U.K., by means of our S3UK subsidiary. We wish you all an informative and happy reading of this Newsletter!
