This is for the top supplier in this increasingly important sector. Which business do you believe has done most to engage their customers and has come up with some truly innovative ideas?

In today’s high-spec world, fit for purpose machinery and equipment is essential. We want to find who goes that extra mile for their customers and how they do it. Who does a great job for you offering outstanding service? Who can you rely on to deliver on its promise? Who do you trust when it comes to meeting production targets utilising the equipment you rely on to do just that? Does equipment allow your business to move forward and progress, offering excellent payback times on your investment? Now is your chance to vote for the supplier that does a great job for you.

This award is to find which organisation/association best maintains and promotes high product and professional standards in the British food industry. Does it challenge the government when necessary? And does it actively help its members, together with the wider industry, to face the issues with a clear authoritative voice?

Food businesses can’t always recruit ideally skilled employees as readily as they would like. They therefore need to invest in the education and development of staff. We want to recognise who has done that well in 2020. Does your company have a training scheme to be proud of, or do you know of one? Alternatively, is there an organisation or trade body supplying training that you believe deserves recognition?

Who do you think represents the best in UK and Ireland food retailing this year? Who has a demonstrable track record – and why? The business must be nominated by a third party. Finalists will then be selected by a judging panel and stores visited by private shoppers.

This very special award will be made to a manager or senior executive who has made an outstanding contribution to the UK and Irish food industry. The individual may work directly in food processing or be employed in a trade body or promotional organisation. Who do you know that merits such recognition? Make sure you nominate now.
