Smeg Professional joins The FEA

As a commercial manufacturer growing from strength to strength, the credibility and support of being part of The FEA is important for the company as it continues to expand.

The FEA provides information for companies and their management teams to value and rely on in the catering equipment sector. It helps unite the UK commercial kitchen equipment industry and delivers a range of benefits to its members. As part of BEAMA, The FEA enjoys contact and representation at the highest level with Government, the BSI and many other influential bodies. Through the work of its Technical Committee, The FEA is at the heart of the European equipment standards drafting process and members have FREE access to ALL the relevant technical material through the The FEA Secretariat. Other benefits from being part of The FEA include training, networking events and access to conferences and exhibitions.

Phil Coulstock, channel director for Smeg Professional commented: 'We're delighted to join The FEA which reaffirms our growing stature in the industry. We look forward to working with The FEA and have already enrolled some of the sales team into undergoing the CFSP accreditation scheme to support their ongoing professional development'.

This announcement comes following Smeg’s ongoing commitment to CEDA (Catering Equipment Distributors Association) where Smeg is a silver partner. Both associations are recognized as the largest and most influential in the catering equipment sector. Smeg’s involvement with both The FEA and CEDA ensures its Foodservice sector continues to be well represented with the backing and experience of major trade associations.
