Anila's Authentic Sauces firm has received its first export order from Switzerland. Earlier this year the award-winning curry sauce and accompaniments producer won an export order to Germany after exhibiting at the world's most important food and drink sector trade fair, Anuga. Anila's travelled with UK Trade & Investment to exhibit as part of the British Pavilion at Anuga in Cologne in October 2009. Now the company run by Anila Vaghela has secured a second order as a result of contacts made at the trade fair and has started exporting to Switzerland for the first time. A Swiss distributor has ordered more than 1,100 jars of curry sauces, chutneys and pickles from the firm, which is based in Walton-on-Thames with a unit in Hounslow, and is run by Anila and her husband Dan.
