Ben Obese – Jecty MP Visit to AM Fresh

We were delighted to welcome Ben Obese-Jecty MP to AM Fresh in December to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the cold chain industry.

As an organisation that represents the interests of the temperature-controlled sector, there is no better way for us to get politicians to understand the complexities of the rural economy than to get them out and about and see it for themselves.

We explored critical issues such as the upcoming Christmas rush, the sector’s role as critical infrastructure, and the negative impact of National Insurance Contributions on our workforce.

At the CCF we engage with all MPs, whatever their political allegiance, and while we are unlikely to always agree, we must keep communication channels open and have constructive and robust conversations to ensure the rural voice is heard.

It’s crucial that policymakers understand the unique challenges faced by our industry. We look forward to continuing to work with Ben and other MPs to ensure a sustainable and thriving cold chain sector.
