“Fife epitomises Scotland at its best with a mixture of manufacturing and service companies – not forgetting the wonderful tourism sector.
“I have personal experience of the latter – Mrs Fred and I holidayed in the East Neuk for seven years in a row when our children were school age.
“We have nothing but happy memories of those summers.”
He added: “I’d like to wish all of the finalists the very best for what is surely going to be a terrific evening of celebration.
