Annette Brune
"Recently, Annette has been involved in a number of international programme evaluations for different industry organisations, covering a variety of sectors and overseas markets."
Annette has worked in food and agribusiness sector consultancy for more than twelve years, focusing on strategic marketing research, programme evaluation and consulting in international markets.
Annette has gained particularly in-depth experience in developing markets – often personally conducting field work in so-called "hard" markets such as Haiti, Nicaragua, Tanzania and, most recently, Libya.
Her geographic experience comprises Europe, North and Latin America, Asia and Africa. A fluent Spanish speaker, she has a particular affinity to Latin America, a region where she has worked extensively over the years on a multitude of different projects.
After joining the food sector consulting division at Landell Mills in the late 1990s, Annette took the business independent in 2003, re-branding it from iRIS Consulting to Orrani Consulting in 2008.
Since then, she has helped grow the company, continuing to explore different markets and sectors. More recently, she has been involved in a number of international programme evaluations for different industry organisations, an aspect of consulting work she particularly enjoys.
Over the years, Annette has presented at several international food industry conferences, both in English and in Spanish. She is also fluent in German – her native tongue.
Annette has an MA in European Business from the University of the West of England, Bristol, UK.
