Karen passed away six weeks ago, and during this time, Aimia has taken time to reflect and find the right words to honour her memory. Her loss has been deeply felt across the Aimia team and the wider business. Aimia wanted to pay tribute in a way that truly reflects the impact she had on all of them.

She was a cherished member of the Aimia family for over 18 years. Karen brought not only her marketing expertise but a warmth and lovable nature that made her more than a colleague — she was a true friend to so many.

Karen was a familiar and friendly face at industry events and exhibitions, including LACA and TUCO, where her passion for the brands she represented and her commitment to the hospitality and education sectors shone through.

Michelle Younger, marketing director at Aimia Foods, shared her tribute: “Karen didn’t just promote the brands she worked on; she passionately believed in each one of them and was committed to the industries she worked across.

“Karen was a much-loved and respected member of the Aimia family and was always happy to share her knowledge with her team and colleagues. There are no words to describe the loss we all feel with Karen’s passing, and our thoughts go out to her family and friends at this sad time.”

Aimia Foods says Karen will be remembered not only for her professional achievements but for her warmth, generosity, and unwavering support for those around her. She wasn’t just liked — she was truly loved, and her memory will live on in the friendships she formed and the many special moments she helped create.
