Genuine Jersey, an association formed in 2001 to help make it easier for consumers to recognise products made on the island, is to launch a new round of ‘Meet The Member’ videos. To date more than 120 producers based in Jersey have been filmed talking about their wares and the processes and inspiration behind them.
The initial campaign was funded thanks to the generosity of Evelyn Partners, the wealth management and professional services group, which has its Jersey office in Liberation Square, St Helier. Evelyn Partners was the inaugural patron of Genuine Jersey and its decision to renew its patronage for a further three years means that the ‘Meet The Member’ campaign can continue.
Matt Falla, Managing Partner in Evelyn Partners’ Jersey office commented: “As an organisation with a strong commitment to businesses and the local community in Jersey, we are an enthusiastic supporter of Genuine Jersey and its work helping to raise the profile of products that have been genuinely made on the island. The ‘Meet The Member’ video series has been an excellent initiative highlighting the range of producers creating in Jersey and we are delighted to extend our patronage of the association for a further three years which will enable this video campaign to continue.”
John Garton, CEO Genuine Jersey commented: ‘The management committee and members of the Association are absolutely delighted that Evelyn Partners have extended their patronage for a further three years. The ‘Meet the Member’ video series enables us to tell the fascinating and important stories of our Members in a way that would not have been possible without their financial support for which we are very grateful. We are really looking forward to working with Evelyn Partners to support our Members and showcase the best that the island has to offer.’
