LEVI ROOTS: REGGAE REGGAE SAUCE SUPREMO THURSDAY | 11.00 | KEYNOTE THEATRE 1 The story of Levi Roots’ journey to where he is today started in his grandmother’s kitchen in the small Jamaican village of Clarendon; where Levi learned the secrets and subtleties of mixing Caribbean herbs, flavours and spices.

After moving to London in the ‘70s, Levi later went on to start producing his now famous sauce from his home in Brixton; going on to open the immensely popular ‘Rasta’raunt’ at Notting Hill Carnival in 1991.

Following 16 years of rejected requests to banks and businesses for a cash-injection in his sauce, in 2007 Levi put his faith in Reggae Reggae Sauce and secured a £50,000 investment

after a memorable (and musical) pitch in the Den. The sauce was an instant hit on supermarket shelves and ten years on from that TV appearance, Levi’s success has been nothing short of a whirlwind; with the brand going from strength to strength.

Always focused and evermotivated, the entrepreneur remains true to his inspired mantra of success - ‘put some music in your food!’

Without the right protection behind your brand, you leave it vulnerable to infringement, or even theft. The experts from the Intellectual Property Office will explain the importance of branding and protection.

HOW TO GROW YOUR BUSINESS WITH CUSTOMERS AT ITS HEART

CREATE £50,000 – £1 MILLION IN THE NEXT 12 MONTHS

Louisa is an experienced consultant, trainer, entrepreneur and subject expert in developing markets on the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Programme. She will talk on the subject of why it is much harder to be successful in business today.

Discover how you can create a business that everyone on the Times Rich List has in common when you attend this masterclass.

Markets have and will continue to change across all sectors and geographies. Customers are better informed today, they also have more choice because in most markets supply exceeds demand. Even in growing markets, competition is intensifying and customers are increasingly demanding.

Winning customers means being even more relevant to them than your competitors, understanding and resolving their problems and doing that more effectively or efficiently than anyone else can. Insight is not the prerogative of big companies – it’s the spark for most entrepreneurs.

However, as businesses grow, it can be harder to maintain that customer closeness as scale and distance get in the way. The challenge is to harness techniques that will help you to overcome these barriers and ensure that your business grows with customers at its heart.
