Über den Autor
John Freeman joined the then well-known Bristol printing and packaging company E. S. & A. Robinson in 1953. He worked in their flexible packaging company Colodense until 1996. Colodense became wholly owned by British Cellophane of Bridgwater in the 1950s. From the production planning department, John transferred to internal export sales in 1956. Eventually as the Middle East started to use oil wealth to develop its own industries, John started travelling regularly to the area in 1974 and continued to do so until his retirement.
