A seat plaque, beside the path from Coastguard Avenue to the loughshore, commemorating Jean François Jamet. “A giant of the drinks industry in Northern Ireland who died following a long battle with cancer was a "larger-than-life character". French-born former managing director of Guinness Northern Ireland Jean-Francois Jamet passed away aged 59. The businessman - who was better known as Jeff - spent much of his working life in the drinks industry here, heading up the stout brand during the mid-1990s and into 2001. Former colleague Stephen Magorrian - who heads up the Horatio Group - paid tribute to Mr Jamet. "He was a larger-than-life character and a very big man, but soft and a gentle man. He was great company and well liked by the trade," he said. "He was a man who loved his job and loved Northern Ireland" - Belfast Telegraph, 9 September 2015.
