Food Centrale Agency Managing Director Helen Hagge: "In its long history, Food Centrale has become a fixture in the industry with its passion for good food and great photos. We are delighted that this wonderful material has now found a new home in the ddp Group. This has given us the opportunity to concentrate fully on our agency work: Food Centrale continues to produce the perfect content on the subject of food, from photo and video production to event planning and brand consulting. We are convinced that first-class food deserves first-class presentation."
