52 LANDMARK RAU ALUMNI Edward Magor Agriculture, 2009. Using wool grown by their ownMerino sheep, Herne offers pioneering apparel that’s designed, grown and made in Britain. Since graduating from the RAC in 2009 with a degree in Agriculture, I have worked for our family business managing our mixed farm inWiltshire, running our retail tea business, Williamson Tea, and assisting in the management of projects on our tea farms in Kenya. The retail market for tea is highly competitive and my focus has been developing theWilliamsonTea brand, concentrating on our unique selling point of being family tea farmers and the only brand of tea available in the UKmarket whose teas come solely from their own farms. Over ten years I learnt how to create and brand value- adding products for what is essentially a very low value commodity. ALUMNI IN THE PANDEMIC herneclothing.com @herne_clothing
