The final countdown to this year’s Food Management Today Industry Awards ceremony has started, and organisers are urging anyone who has still not booked their ticket to do so now – very limited spaces remain.

The awards ceremony and black-tie dinner, hosted at the 5-star Royal Lancaster Hotel in London on Wednesday evening 25th May, will offer food industry professionals the chance to celebrate the best of the sector at the annual event – back this year as an in-person occasion following a website presentation last year because of Covid.

Matt Tebbutt, the presenter of the popular Saturday Kitchen on BBC1 and Best Bites on BBC 2, has been confirmed as this year’s host – see interview with Matt here.

Publisher of Food Management Today magazine, Graham Yandell, commented: “We really are absolutely delighted that Matt has agreed to join us and to host our special evening scheduled for May 25th. This is one of the highlights of the annual industry calendar and these awards remain unique in the scope and coverage that they provide. Our new venue will be a spectacular backdrop for a fantastic occasion.

“Matt follows other top celebrity chefs who have endorsed our food awards over the years such as Michele Roux Jr. and John Torode, and I am certain he will be a big hit with our guests. The message is book your tables or tickets now, we are down to the remaining few places.”

Lead organiser of the Awards, Sharon Yandell, added: “The Food Management Today Industry Awards is a top accolade that everyone wants to win in our particular food sector and we are really delighted with the level of participation this year.

“We are set for a wonderful night on 25th May with a first-class dinner and we also have a great host in Matt Tebbutt, from TV’s Saturday Kitchen. This will be an occasion where everyone can celebrate in style.”
