David Mellard is founder and director of Bedrock HR. When small and medium sized businesses need an expert HR function but want to focus on what they do best they hire a company like David’s.

Saira Syed is a solicitor with the law firm KJ Smith. They’re based in Cedar Court in Petersfield and it’s a bespoke firm which deals exclusively with family and divorce work.

Joe Bicknell is the proprietor of Hectors. Based on Chapel Street in Petersfield, Hector’s quickly made a name for itself as the go-to place for menswear but Hectors also stocks ladies clothing and homewares too…. and offers a hire service for special occasions.

And also at the table is Tim Gamester to look ahead to what’s happening in Petersfield’s First Friday business networking club in October.

The Traders' Table is supported by Petersfield's First Friday business networking club and produced by Shine Radio.
