The Implementation and adaption of initiatives to comply with ISO 9002(now 901-2002) TCS was the first Terminal in the world to receive these accreditations. Also initiatives were put into place whereby the companies’ environmental footprint could be improved this by means of regular internal and external audits.

These procedures later became certificated to ensure quality assurance including Port health clearance procedures and are now approved and fully compliant with all EU veterinary directives regarding the importation of animal products.

Oliver and Kempsey farms Ltd. Cwrt farm. Aberdaron. N. Wales. 1980-1984
As an assistant farm manager I was responsible for the introduction of various initiatives to further enhance the profitability of the business. One of my main achievements’ was the design and subsequent implementation of a ten year rotational policy. This allowed for flexible options that could be factored in dependent on yearly fluctuations outside of normal market conditions. Also included within the portfolio were initiatives allowing for fluctuations in labor requirements, as obviously during periods of peak productivity seasonal workers would be required. Streamlining initiatives I advocated involving direct control of labor costs were instrumental in increased profitability. This at a time when agriculture was experiencing shrinkage in market potential through increasing foreign competition combined with escalating operating costs.
I also lowered the mortality rate within the unit from 7% to 0.25% this was achieved by advanced training of staff in animal husbandry and basic veterinary practices. I also oversaw the expansion of the stock unit to incorporate a large pedigree herd of Herefords together with an increase in diversification that would set new standards within the community.
