We're here to help.

Our dedicated International Export Sales team takes care of our customers worldwide, while collaborating closely with our colleagues in the US and Canada.

Ben has worked in International Sales for the best part of the last 10 years and loves the challenge of meeting customer's needs across the world.

Previously heading up a team at a small family-run engineering company, Ben saw the opportunity to join the team at Farams whilst doing a recruitment project. He jumped at the idea of entering into the brewing industry, having previously enjoyed homebrewing and drinking all manner of different beer styles. 

Ben enjoys being busy and has been juggling the running of the International department and studying for his General Certificate in Brewing, through the IBD, to improve his knowledge of the brewing process.

Outside of work, Ben enjoys spending time with his family, traveling, listening to music and podcasts, and enjoying a beer or two in his local pub.

Andrew has over 30 years of experience in the brewing industry and manages the hop supply of our international supply chain partners.

Andrew has previously worked as a design engineer then during his time playing rugby, he met someone who had just started a brewery. Andrew persistently asked for a job and was offered one. He then began travelling to different countries with Faram's on selection visits. As business at Charles Faram continued to grow, Andrew was invited to join the team, and he has not looked back ever since.

The opportunity to travel and meet different brewers and try beers from around the world is his favourite part of his role and is a great way for him to connect with the global brewing community.

Andrew's hobbies include rugby, music, gardening and of course, having a beer at the pub. Cheers to that.

The first beer Bartek ever had was in a Czech hospoda, and the second one in a British pub. Since then, there was no turning back from the beer path. His love for beer brought him from Poland to Belgium, where Bartek studied brewing and worked as a head brewer.

For Bartek, besides hops, of course, the most important ingredient in beer is the people and their stories. Bartek enjoys visiting breweries by bike or train the most. His favourite beer depends on where he's drinking it — but most of them will have a hint of Styrian Golding or Fuggle.

Jason has been in the beer industry for over 10 years starting in beer import, export and distribution and migrating to ingredients 5 years ago in the same areas as he covers now.
 
Jason is based in the mountains of the Savoie region of France. A perfect area for sport and dog walks.
 
His favourite style of beer changes frequently but at the moment he's quite into lagers and British ales and there’s nothing like a good pint of Guiness, in Ireland!
 
Jason is also enjoying following the rise and development of low and no alcohol beers. His current favourite in that space in the blonde by Edmond who brew at the Brasserie du Pilat, just south of Lyon and who are on my list to visit.
 
Feel free to contact Jason by phone or email.
