The 500-cover restaurant at the Haskins Garden Centre at Longham Ferndown has a new manager. Kevin Ramsell from Ringwood, joined the Haskins Garden Centre group as a head chef in 2008, following 17 years experience within the hotel industry.
Since then, he has assisted the catering director in Southampton and at the new £12 million centre near Worthing, which opened last February (2012). His role has covered training, development, and enhancing the brand standard.
“I’m delighted to have the opportunity to manage one of the most successful restaurants in the region with the general manager,” said Kevin Ramsell. “Since the Ferndown restaurant was expanded with a £2.5 million extension in 2008, we have enjoyed year-on-year growth thanks to the experience and capability offered by the 65-strong catering team.”
