Directorate Changes
Real Good Food announces that it has, with immediate effect, appointed Lee
Camfield, Peter Salter and Richard Gradowski-Smith as group Finance Director and
as non-executive directors, respectively. Further information concerning these
directors is set out below.

Trading Update

Haydens Bakeries is currently producing weekly revenues that are 25 per cent.
higher when compared to levels being achieved at the time of its acquisition.
The increase in turnover has been generated from significant store growth within
its major customers and the supply of new products to those customers. The Board
anticipates that turnover growth will continue at this rate for the remainder of
2004. As a result of the increases in production volumes, the Company will be
undertaking a capital expenditure programme, under which £1 million of
expenditure has already been approved and committed. This investment is expected
to improve efficiency and margins in the longer term.

Eurofoods is currently undertaking a rebranding exercise to 'Coolfresh Foods'.
Since April 2004, sales to new customers have restored trading volumes to a
level achieved in the corresponding period of last year. Management has also
successfully replaced a supply contract that was terminated in December 2003.
Whilst it will take time to absorb these changes the Board expects an
improvement in the performance of this division during the second half of 2004.

Seriously Scrumptious' factory has now received technical approval from the
British Retail Consortium and several new customers have been gained as a result
of this accreditation. The Board expects this trend to continue and impact on
the results of the division during the remainder of 2004.

In summary, the Directors anticipate that the benefits of the Five Star Fish
acquisition, the other planned initiatives and the capital investment and sales
development programmes will be seen in the financial performance of the group
for the second half of 2004.

Following the recent acquisition of Five Star Fish Limited, Pieter Totte,
Chairman, commented;

'We are delighted to have completed the Five Star transaction and we are sure
the business will fit well with the boards vision for the development of Real
Good Food and become a key driver of growth in the years to come. The two
businesses have complimentary management teams and we will be working together
to develop the growth opportunities within the group.'
