Keith Rog

Keith Rog - Personal Profile

Keith, who has lived in the Severn Vale for nearly twenty years, has started and developed his own successful business and, therefore, fully appreciates the challenges of owning and operating small and medium sized businesses.

Prior to running his own business he gained wide experience at varying levels within banking, pub retailing and the motor industry.

Keith was particularly pleased, as an activist of Federation of Small Businesses and vice chairman of the Gloucester branch, to put his knowledge and experience to good use as a member of the county’s recovery task force in 2001 following the outbreak of Foot and Mouth disease.

When not working, Keith’s enthusiasm for local food and drink and his keen interest in the Cotswold Canals and their restoration help him relax.
