From the archives: Lord Haskins' welcome interview as he takes LEP top role
Local Enterprise Partnership
He married the maiden of a milk empire on the condition he joined the family business, which first brought him to this area more than 40 years ago. His acumen and consumer foresight, together with that of his father-in-law, led Northern Foods to become a pioneer of ready meal development, and a giant in the sector through acquisition, adaption and growth. Now, Lord Christopher Haskins is overseeing an extended pasture, which takes in much more than his East Yorkshire farm, having been appointed chairman of the Humber Local Enterprise Partnership. David Laister met him.
