IGD convention 2014
Ranjit Boparan
As the boss of 2 Sisters Food Group, Ranjit Boparan knows a thing or two about growing a business and making timely acquisitions.
He shared his advice on making the right improvements to your business at the right time during a panel session hosted by broadcaster Michael Burke and featuring Gavin Darby, ceo, Premier Foods and Ronald Kers, chief executive, Müller-Wiseman Dairies, at the IGD convention.
Boparan: “There’s a timescale – bigger and better. You create a business and you make it bigger and then you have to make it better before you can make it a bigger business again, so there is a timescale for each one of those.
“Scale does help in business and it helps you to achieve. Sometimes you just can’t carry on getting bigger, bigger, bigger. You have to step back and create a better business.”
