The top 100. Check it out:
(Caterer and Hotelkeeper Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
The second CatererSearch 100 brings you the 100 most influential people whose achievements are having the biggest impact upon the hospitality industry in 2006. It tells you where they've been, where they are now and where they are going.

This annually updated list of operators includes a diverse collection of personalities, from the bosses of the biggest corporate giants to others who are pushing the boundaries of style, comfort or cuisine in their chosen field.

The CatererSearch 100 covers all sectors of the industry - hoteliers, restaurateurs, contract caterers, pub operators and chefs. Nominees in each of these five categories were judged by panels of journalists who specialise in those sectors.



To begin with, candidates had to meet these qualifying criteria: the personality should be based mainly in the UK, and their power and influence should be primarily in the UK market.

Shortlisted candidates were awarded marks for each of five criteria, which were then averaged out to give an overall ranking in the CatererSearch 100.

First consideration was the scale and scope of the operation headed by the nominees. But size isn't everything, and candidates were next judged on the power and influence they exert in the industry and the respect they command among their peers. We asked whether they were shapers of policy, leaders in their field, or inspiring and nurturing the next generation of movers and shakers.

The judges then examined whether the candidates had a proven record of financial success and whether this was reflected in the eyes of their peers and the outside world.

The candidates' reputation for innovation was next, as the judges examined to what degree they were setting standards others wanted to copy and whether their ideas would remain in fashion.

Longevity was the fifth and final hurdle for the candidates as the panellists considered whether they - and their creations - would stand the test of time.

Profiles of our top 100 stars can be found at www.caterersearch.com/caterersearch100.

1. Gordon Ramsay

Overall ranking: 1 (4)

Chef ranking: 1 (2)

(2005 positions in brackets)

Snapshot

Gordon Ramsay is perhaps the most influential and high-profile chef-restaurateur to emerge in recent years. Hailed as a culinary genius, he is as well known to the public for his expletive-fuelled TV series and his inspirational cookbooks as for his empire of restaurants now spreading across the globe. Gordon Ramsay Holdings (GRH) comprises nine London restaurants with eight Michelin stars between them, consultancies at the Hilton Dubai Creek hotel and the Conrad Tokyo, along with three planned US hotel restaurants, including a New York opening this autumn.

What we think

Ramsay is one of only two British chefs to currently own a three-Michelin-starred restaurant, and his group is the only one in the UK to hold a total of eight stars.

His eponymous Chelsea restaurant went from none to three Michelin stars in just three years. He was recognised with the Catey Chef Award in 2000 and, having won the Best Newcomer award in 1995, Ramsay scored a hat-trick this year with the Independent Restaurateur of the Year Catey.

Ramsay's 13 books have proved equally essential to professional chefs and lay cooks, while his various TV series, which include Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, Hell's Kitchen and The

F Word, have made him an international figurehead for the trade. His international reputation saw him appointed OBE in the last New Year Honours.

His media work, which includes regular columns for the Sunday Times and Channel 4's 4Homes magazine, has boosted his fortune to an estimated 67m, making him the richest chef in Britain.

He has proved that fine dining can bring home the bacon as well as the plaudits. GRH reported a 3.7m profit on a 28m turnover for the year to August 2005, the year the Sunday Times named the group the 54th fastest-growing company in Britain.

The Harden's guide warned this year that Ramsay's grip on the popular imagination "risks becoming stifling" - a fact Ramsay himself seems to recognise. His 10th UK restaurant - a fine-dining venue that opens in Heathrow's Terminal 5 in 2008 - may be his last. Instead, a chain of country pubs is on the agenda.

Overseas is a different matter. Next month he opens his first US restaurant, at the London NYC hotel in New York under Neil Ferguson, followed by a venue at the Boca Raton Resort & Club in Florida under Angela Hartnett. Spring 2007 will see the opening of a third US Ramsay restaurant, at the London LA hotel in Los Angeles.

2. Jamie Oliver

Overall ranking: 2 (1)

Chef ranking: 2 (1)

Snapshot

TV chef Jamie Oliver is one of Britain's most famous exports. His award-winning TV series have been seen in 50 countries and the accompanying best-selling books have been translated into 16 languages. He has earned respect through his campaigns on behalf of young people, and he now has four restaurants around the globe.

What we think

Oliver's star quality was spotted when he was just 21 in a documentary about London's River Caf. The day after it was televised, Oliver fielded calls from five production companies, and thus was born The Naked Chef.

His informal and hands-on approach, which stripped food down to its bare essentials, made cooking fun and accessible to millions. A 2004 report from Mintel named Oliver, along with Delia Smith and Nigella Lawson, as the most significant influences on the nation's cooking habits.

However, three series of The Naked Chef in tandem with years of Sainsbury's ads threatened to jade the public's appetite for Oliver. But his currency as a ratings booster was revived with his next project, Jamie's Kitchen, which charted his six-month struggle to convert a derelict building in Hoxton into a 70-seat restaurant manned by 15 unemployed youngsters.

The charitable venture attracted an avalanche of accolades in 2003, including a Catey Special Award and an MBE.

Also in the same year, his restaurant Fifteen went into profit (of about 400,000) for the first time, and Oliver's media work, along with the tableware and cookware lines he developed with Royal Worcester and Tefal, helped him double his fortune to 20m. In 2006 the Independent named him Britain's second-richest chef, with an estimated value of 58m.

A fierce critic of outsourced school dinners, Oliver backed up his words with action and worked with Kidbrooke Secondary School in the London borough of Greenwich to feed pupils a healthier diet. By July 2005 nearly 80 schools in Greenwich were serving Oliver's meals.

He has not let the school meals issue drop, and in a one-off Channel 4 programme this week he turned his wrath on the 70% of parents he believes send their children to school with junk food.

The Oliver effect was seen again this month as the Government pledged to spend another 240m on school meals between 2008 and 2011.

Oliver is also an honorary vice-chairman of Hospitality Action's Ark Foundation.

3. Grant Hearn

Overall ranking: 3 (31)

Hotel ranking: 1 (10)

Snapshot

Grant Hearn is the chief executive of Travelodge, the fourth-largest hotel group in the UK and the second-largest budget brand after Whitbread's Premier Travel Inn.

What we think

Grant Hearn has always played with the biggest boys on the block, and his expansionary skills have ensured he has made his mark on the hotel landscape. Most notably, he has driven the development of the two leading budget brands, Premier Travel Inn and Travelodge.

Hearn was lured from Forte to Whitbread and quickly became the first managing director of the budget Travel Inn brand before leaving to head Hilton's UK operations in 2000.

In early 2003, Hearn joined Travelodge as chief executive, the brand his cousin Alan Hearn had launched in the UK in 1985 at Trusthouse Forte, which had bought the US Travelodge business in 1973.

By mid-2006 Hearn had boosted Travelodge numbers from 220 to 291 - including three in Spain and nine Irish franchises - with nearly 18,500 bedrooms and six million customers a year. Over the next three years he intends to open about 50 new properties a year. By the first quarter of 2007 the group expects to have 20,000 bedrooms, rising to 32,000 by 2011.

Hearn's mission is to make hotels an attractive and affordable proposition for the one-third of Britons who don't use them and the 85% who view domestic breaks as too expensive.

In December last year Travelodge announced 20m-worth of price cuts to offer 500,000 bedrooms at 26 a night and another 100,000 for 10 which, together with a new online booking system, helped boost sales by 19%.

Hearn has rattled a few cages by accusing rivals of rip-off prices. He took out full-page newspaper adverts accusing several big brands of misleading customers by advertising price-per-person rather than price-per-room rates, and he had a competitor's car park leafleted to ask its customers if they felt were being ripped off.

Hearn has been the only hotelier to actively fight a proposed "bed tax", and he raised a petition of more than 90,000 signatures against it.

Recent innovations have included the appointment of the world's first director of sleep and trials of a window transfer system - so guests can wake up to their chosen view -and of a 26-a-night mobile bedroom, or Travelpod, that can be delivered to festival-goers.

Hearn and his top management team will stay on and finish the job under new owner Dubai Investment Capital, which agreed to buy Travelodge last month.

4. Tim Clarke

Overall ranking: 4 (31)

Pub ranking: 1 (10)

Snapshot

Tim Clarke has been chief executive of Mitchells & Butlers (M&B) since it demerged from Six Continents (formerly Bass) in April 2003. M&B is the fifth-largest pub operator and the second-largest managed pub business in the UK. It runs more than 2,000 pubs, bars and restaurants, of which 80% are freehold, and is a significant player in the budget hotel market. In the year to 1 October 2005, the group reported pre-tax profits of 192m on sales of 1.66b.

What we think

Tim Clarke has been at the helm of M&B since it demerged from Six Continents (formerly Bass) in April 2003. M&B now owns 3% of the UK's pubs but accounts for 10% of the sector's turnover, with weekly sales per pub three times the national average.

The group operates diverse brands under two operating divisions: pubs and bars (Ember Inns, Hollywood Bowl, Arena, Flares, Edwards, Goose, Scream, O'Neills, Sizzling Pub Co), and restaurants (Vintage Inns, Harvester, Toby Carvery, All Bar One, Innkeeper's Fayre, Brown's, and the Alex bar and brasserie chain in Germany).

M&B also operates 24 Express by Holiday Inn hotels and 80 Innkeeper Lodges, making it the UK's fifth-largest budget hotel group and the 15th-largest hotel operator.

M&B is a leading casual-dining operator, and Clarke owes much of M&B's pre-eminence in this sector to the managing director of his restaurants division, Tony Hughes. Food sales have grown from 11% to 30% of the group total in the past decade, rising to 60% at brands such as Harvester, Toby and Vintage Inns.

In May Clarke fought off a preconditional bid of 550p per share from property tycoon Robert Tchenguiz and then won the battle to buy a chunk of Whitbread pubs in July. This 497m acquisition of more than 240 pub-restaurants provides an opportunity for M&B to position its estate even further towards the high-growth eating-out market and in the long term should boost the food sales mix of its enlarged estate to 40%.

Under Clarke the group has emerged as the most esteemed hospitality business in the UK in Management Today's peer-reviewed Britain's Most Admired Companies rankings in December 2005, when it rocketed from 65th to ninth position in the pan-industry top 220.

Clarke is also a director of the British Beer & Pub Association.

5. Andrew Cosslett

Overall ranking: 5 (17)

Hotel ranking: 2 (4)

Snapshot

Andrew Cosslett took on the 650,000-a-year role of chief executive at InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) on 3 February 2005. He now heads up the world's largest hotel operator by bedroom numbers, which posted pre-tax profits of 284m on a 1.9b turnover in 2005. It currently owns, leases, franchises or manages 3,651 hotels with more than 540,000 bedrooms in nearly 100 countries and employs in excess of 90,000 staff worldwide (350,000 if you count jobs created by franchisees).

What we think

The ousting of Richard North, Andrew Cosslett's predecessor, in September 2004 was a shock as it came just months after he announced a 55% boost to interim pre-tax profits.

According to chairman David Webster, IHG's future was to be "increasingly focused on growing our global brands" in a predominantly managed and franchised hotel system. The execution of this strategy required a leader with skills in brand development and operations.

Cosslett's appointment highlighted a growing trend among hotel groups to seek bosses from outside the industry as they moved from property ownership to hotel management (both Hilton and Starwood took similar measures last year).

The InterContinental portfolio was built up by brewer Bass from 1987. Having sold its brewing interests, Bass (renamed Six Continents) demerged its hotel and pub businesses in 2003 to create IHG and Mitchells & Butlers.

Three years down the line IHG has largely completed its metamorphosis. It has sold 175 of the 198 hotels it owned in a series of deals of which the largest was the 1b sale-and-manage-back in March 2005 of 73 UK hotels to a consortium led by Lehman Brothers Real Estate.

Now the group owns or leases just 22 properties, and only those in key cities such as London (the InterContinental on Hyde Park corner), Paris, New York and Hong Kong can be certain of remaining in the portfolio. Most (3,120) are now franchised, and 490 are managed.

Expansion is now the name of the game and Cosslett plans to expand the estate by 50,000 or 60,000 bedrooms over the next three years, with China earmarked for growth from 47 to 125 properties. Of 1,028 new hotels in the pipeline, all will be managed or franchised.

They will include the debut of the extended-stay Staybridge Suites brand (to date used only in the USA) in Brentford, Middlesex, towards the end of this year and in London's South Bank in 2007.

Cosslett also intends to focus on differentiating and defining the group's stable of brands to make the offers sharper and more innovative.

The disposal programme has enabled IHG to return 2.75b to shareholders (more than its flotation value of 2.6b) and the group is now worth 3.2b.

In Management Today's peer-reviewed Britain's Most Admired Companies 2005 ranking, IHG was listed 92nd in the pan-industry top 220.

This year's CatererSearch 100 includes 22 chefs - four more than last year - and chefs make up numbers one and two on the overall list: Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver, respectively.

Ramsay's media domination means he overtakes Oliver as the most influential player in the sector. As well as his high-profile media presence, Ramsay has also successfully opened La Noisette in London (on the site of the former Pengelley's) and, with two new sites opening in the USA this autumn, he is now the most significant player in the sector.

However, Oliver is still having an impact with new restaurant openings and another TV programme on school meals.

Other chefs whose stock has risen this year include Michael Caines and Mark Edwards. Caines is behind Abode, a hotel brand that has a strong emphasis on its food offering.

Edwards has opened three more Nobus in 2005 and has plans for another two to open next year.

Newcomers to this year's list include Richard Corrigan, who has opened Bentley's in London, and Mark Hix.

Philip Howard has fallen out of this year's top 100, partly because he hasn't opened any new restaurants and his media profile has dipped since last year's Unichef campaign to help the victims of the Boxing Day tsunami. Also off the list is Claude Bosi, who has put his flagship restaurant, Hibiscus in Ludlow, on the market.

* Ones to watch: David Everitt-Matthias, chef-proprietor of Le Champignon Sauvage in Cheltenham, is tipped to get another Michelin star, which could catapult him into next year's list, along with Bosi, if he finds a suitable new site in London as planned.

There are 24 players from the hotel sector who have made it to this year's list, compared with 26 last year.

Biggest mover this year is Grant Hearn, who has shot to number one in the hotel list and third overall. In a hotly debated sector, Hearn edged the judges' votes because of his dynamic leadership of Travelodge in the past year. Not only has he brokered an effective sale, which will enable the business to grow further, but he has also led the hotel industry in the fight against a bed tax. While Andy Cosslett and Ian Carter have also had extremely successful years at the helm of international hotel giants, we believe Hearn has had a bigger impact on the UK scene.

David Michels, who led the hotel list last year, has been retained, despite no longer being a part of Hilton. However, he was at the helm for much of the year, and his plans to stay in the sector mean his influence remains.

Another hotly debated subject on this list was whether Richard Balfour Lynn should be included, given that he is a property tycoon rather than an operating hotelier. However, with his involvement in new ventures at Verve and as the new owner of De Vere it was felt his inclusion was warranted.

Other new entrants include Surinder Arora, whose deal to build and manage the new Sofitel hotel at Heathrow's Terminal 5 was seen as a real coup. Also new to the list are the Matharu brothers, owners of Grange Hotels.

* Likely to reappear next year is Robin Hutson, who is keen to acquire a London hotel site as well as being involved with Soho House. Another player worth watching is Louis Woodcock, the former Holiday Inn by Express franchisee who is back in the owner-franchisee business.

top-ranked Pub executives

1. Tim Clarke

(up from 3)

2. Giles Thorley

(up from 4)

3. Ted Tuppen

4. Rooney Anand

(up from 7)

5. Ralph Findlay

(up from 6)

6. John Hutson

(new entrant)

7. Mark McQuater

(up from 9)

Seven players from the pub sector make it into this year's CatererSearch 100, with two dropping out: Karen Jones, due to the sale of Spirit, and Bob Ivell, as Regent Inns' influence in the sector was seen to have dwindled slightly this year, despite the recent purchase of the Old Orleans chain of restaurants from Punch Taverns.

Topping the list is Tim Clarke, head of the Mitchells & Butlers (M&B) pub group. Clarke's stock in the industry has increased in the past 12 months as M&B goes from strength to strength. Some observers might feel that Clarke's restaurant boss, Tony Hughes, should have made it into the restaurant list due to M&B's massive influence on the casual-dining sector, but, alas, this year he didn't make it, as the judges tried to keep to one entrant per company in the pub sector.

Another mover this year was Greene King's Rooney Anand, whose business has also had a stunning 12 months.

* One to watch: news that Karen Jones is back in the pub sector with five foodie pubs bought from Punch could mean that she bounces straight back into the list next year.

9. Mark Derry

(up from 16)

10. Ian Neill

(down from 8)

There were 30 restaurateurs on this year's CatererSearch 100, compared with 33 last year.

However, this list probably had the biggest churn of players, with some exiting the market or making way for younger players.

Several people have been replaced by others in their organisation, such as Simon Woodroffe making way for Robin Rowland at Yo! Sushi, Andrew Page replacing his chairman Alan Jackson at The Restaurant Group (TRG), and Simon Kossoff taking over the helm at Carluccio's.

Interestingly, it is Page who makes it to the top of the list, thanks to TRG's busy year, which has seen it reposition itself in the leisure-park sector away from the high street.

Also shooting up the list is Nick Basing, who not only picked up a Catey but also bought a bundle of Caff Unos and tied up a deal to open a Chez Grard at a Premier Travel Inn.

The upper echelons of the list are dominated by the big casual-dining chains, which reflect the growing importance of these businesses in the UK's dining-out market.

* Ones to watch: look out for John Vincent and Henry Dimbleby, whose chain of Leon healthy fast-food restaurants could grow sufficiently to earn them a place in next year's list.

top 10 Contract caterers

1. Richard Cousins (new entrant)

2. Philip Jansen (up from 3)

3. Alastair Storey (up from 4)

4. Andrew Main (up from 8)

5. William Baxter (up from 11)

6. Robyn Jones (up from 10)

7. Roy Gardner (new entrant)

8. Mike Audis (down from 6)

9. Ian El-Mokadem (new entrant)

10. Chris Copner (new entrant )

There are 17 contract caterers on the list this year, compared with 13 last year. The number has been boosted by several new Compass people.

This is the only list that has chosen to name several people from the same company, because of the overwhelming influence that Compass has on the contract-catering market. However, while last year's list had both chairman Francis Mackay and chief executive Mike Bailey in the top 10, their departure sees both names out of this year's top 100.

Its new boss, Richard Cousins, has the task of turning around Compass's fortunes, but the sheer scale and scope of the business mean that he still makes it in at number nine in the full list despite Compass's woes last year.

This year's list also includes individuals who oversee school catering, such as Michelle Hanson of Sodexho, as school meals remain higher up the political agenda following Jamie Oliver's campaign last year.

* One to watch: it's hard to pinpoint anyone making really significant ground in this market, which is dominated by so few players. However, Wilson Vale could come to the fore next year, as could niche upmarket city caterer Vacherin.
