Parisian Florence Boube-Legrand moved to Avigon in 2003 to join the Rhne's generic body as export manager for Asia, eastern Europe and Scandinavia. She had had no previous work experience in the wine trade, only developing an interest while working as marketing manager for the lifestyle section of Parisian newspaper, Le Figaro.
The next trip to London for Boube-Legrand will be in May for the LIWSF. Having just returned from a trip to Japan, she will return to Avignon before flying to Sweden and Denmark. So, when does she have time to see her family? My husband works at Inter Rhne as export manager for the Benelux countries, so we see each other at the office sometimes!'
