The forthcoming UK Sausage Week (UKSW) promotion has encouraged various planned activities across the meat industry with retailers and manufacturers looking forward ahead of the period, which takes place between 28th October – 3rd November.

Organisers report that many businesses across butchery, retailing, foodservice and manufacturing sectors will be participating in the initiative.

The week will kick off with a celebration awards lunch at Butchers’ Hall in London on 28th October, revealing the winners of the UK Sausage Week competition. The event will culminate in the crowning of the prestigious UK Supreme Sausage Champion, selected from eight category winners.

A full list of category finalists can be viewed here.

Publisher of Meat Management magazine, Graham Yandell MBE, commented: “We’re thrilled to welcome colleagues from the industry back to Butchers’ Hall to celebrate UK Sausage Week for the first time since 2019. Covid temporarily brought a halt to the annual event, but the 2024 sell-out lunch and awards is sure to be a highlight in the meat industry calendar this year as we start off UK Sausage Week with a real banger!

“Previous winners and finalists receiving UK Sausage Week awards have reported significant increases in sausage sales. And as far as the full week is concerned I would encourage everyone to get involved to maximise on the profile UK Sausage Week creates.”
