Cropwell Bishop Creamery, the family run award winning Stilton producer, held long service presentations for two key members of staff yesterday (30th October 2007). Godfrey Allison and Paul Oliver have both worked for over 25 years at the Creamery.
Godfrey who works as Despatch Supervisor lives in the village of Cropwell Bishop and joined the Creamery as their very first forklift truck driver in 1982. Over the years he has proved to be an important member of the successful team at the Creamery.
Paul, who now lives in Nottingham, has spent the majority of his working life at Cropwell Bishop Creamery. He first joined back in 1970, but then had to leave for a few years to care for his wife who was seriously ill. On his return, Paul has been involved mainly with the Stilton production process. He is an experienced cheese maker and a key member of the production team.
Joint managing directors, David and Ian Skailes thanked both men for all their hard work and dedication over the years. They were presented with a gold watch each to commemorate their commitment and service to the Company.
