Judging for the 2025 FMT Food Industry Awards has now concluded, with judges reporting very high levels of quality entries and some exciting product innovations.

The FMT Food Industry Awards is a long established and highly prestigious annual awards programme that recognises the best of the food manufacturing, retailing and foodservice industries.

The evaluation process of products entered into the 2025 awards programme took place over the last week in Milton Keynes (w/c 10th February), when judges tasted, considered and marked the hundreds of products that were nominated.

Head judge and CEO of the Institute of Meat Keith Fisher commented: “The quality of this year’s entries was exceptional. The judging and evaluation process once again proved that the food industry understands the importance of ongoing development, quality and innovation, as year after year we continue to be impressed.”

The judging process now completes ahead of the 2025 business luncheon and awards ceremony, which will be held on Thursday 26th June at the 5-star Royal Garden Hotel in Kensington, London.

Finalists that are shortlisted will be pre-publicised with the winners exclusively revealed at the ceremony.
