Former Thierry’s director John Hayston has died
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of John Hayston, formerly of Thierry’s Wine Services, Whitbread and MacFisheries.
He learned his trade as a buyer at MacFisheries before joining Whitbread where he was instrumental in the development of bag in box brand Stowell’s of Chelsea.
Recruited by Thierry Cabanne for his buying experience, he became a solid and dependable director and partner at Thierry’s Wine Services which represented producers such as Nicolas Feuillatte, Mont Tauch, Tariquet, Zuccardi and Vina Canepa.
John worked in the wine trade for 35 years until his retirement in 2005 and is remembered fondly by those who knew and worked with him.
His funeral will be held on Friday, 1st July 2022, 1.00pm at Wessex Vale Crematorium, Bubb Lane, West End, SO30 2HL and afterwards at Hill Head Sailing Club, Cliff Road, Fareham PO14 3JT.
