"Thank you for having me!" said Minister Don. "Really enjoyed the tour, it’s impossible to imagine the scale of production until you actually see it. Also great to learn about sustainability and inclusivity goals and lovely to chat to some of your enthusiastic team and apprentices."
"Thank you for taking time to meet and chat to our people, including our apprentices," said Diageo about the visit.
