EDITOR’S LETTER W
elcome to Kennedy’s Confection. Still trucking at 130 years, of which I have personally been in the industry for 45 of them.
Yeah, I started trekking over to Cologne sporting a pudding bowl haircut and wildly-flared trousers at 10 years old. That was five years after my late mother, bless her soul, Margaret Lang, whom was editor of Kennedy’s Confection at the time, was invited to the first iSM in 1971, which Kennedy’s reported on. At a time, I am told by our good friends at the iSM press room, that there were no more than 371 stands for the whole show.

I want to personally thank them as well as all of our customers and readers…you are the reason we are still here after 130 years - and still a market leader. To those of you heading over to Cologne
for iSM, you can pick up extra copies of this issue at the UK information stand (Hall 4.2 J41) as Kennedy’s Confection are the official exclusive sponsors British Pavilion. Incidentally on Sunday night we shall be at the stand party there, and with our 130-year anniversary of publishing to celebrate, we can’t wait to see you there to join in the fun.
For those of you in a buying mood - you are in for a treat. This issue is packed with information on which stands to visit at both iSM and ProSweets. A smaller ProSweets of course because of Interpack in May, but there is still plenty to see. We start with our UK iSM section (Page 18) where we have worked hard to help you look round the UK section and ProSweets, which even though smaller still a good chunk to see (Page 58).
