Lucy Gemmell, Rhubarb Food and Design
Lucy set up “rhubarb” food design in 1996. In business terms, it’s an impressive rags to riches story – a tiny rented office in Battersea, kitchens in an old lido, a staff of three, and then – 14 years later – 50 full time members of staff, 2 restaurants, and a bar in one of the world’s busiest airports. Based in London, but now increasingly working worldwide, "rhubarb" is regarded as the very best of the catering industry's elite, turning over in excess of £10 million a year, and catering for film premieres, royal weddings, and celebrity charity galas such as Elton John’s White Tie and Tiara Ball.
Aside from her role at “rhubarb”, Lucy has also spent the last ten years working as a Food Consultant for the Olympics and the Rugby World Cup, advising corporate companies all over the world on how to entertain their most important clients.
