Star power at the Awards

Rory Bremner and Julie Peasgood will host the 2025 Women In Meat Industry Awards.

Leading impressionist Rory Bremner will co-host the awards alongside actor, broadcaster and writer Julie Peasgood. The 12 category winners will be revealed, before the final unveiling of the 2025 Meat Businesswoman of the Year.

When asked what guests should expect from him as host of the awards ceremony, Bremner commented: “The most important thing is to relate to the audience and find out beforehand what they do, so you can expect some topical references as well as some old favourites.”

Speaking about the 2025 ceremony, Graham Yandell MBE, publisher of Meat Management, which stages the initiative, stated: “It is a delight to be able to welcome Rory Bremner to the stage this year. He will also be assisted by Julie Peasgood, who I have worked with previously. Julie is a good friend and I know to be a delightful compere.

“I can assure guests a fantastic and memorable evening for all who attend. And don’t forget to take advantage of the early-bird booking discount for the best rates!”
