How to enter and win
There are 20 categories and 20 opportunities to win one of the prestigious Excellence in Food & Drink Awards trophies which will denote your product as the best in its category. From these category winners (except the Kids’ awards), one product will be chosen to take the hospitality industry’s highest product accolade – the coveted Gold Excellence Award.
All the products in the competition will be prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions on the pack, and in addition to tasting each product the judges will consider nutritional values and success in achieving the supplier’s own objectives for the product.
The overriding criteria, however, are quality in terms of taste, texture, aroma and appearance. But to be a winner the product must have something extra special about it that sets it apart from the rest.
There are no restrictions on the number of products entered, but entries must be specified product lines and not a range. Each product entry carries a fee of £175.00 (+ VAT) made payable to Reed Business Information. Please use the entry form online. All entries must be accompanied by a cheque or an official company purchase order number, entries will not be accepted with out this.
All entries will be acknowledged and entrants will be asked to submit tasting samples and full description of the product and its aims in the market.
All shortlisted entries will be featured in an awards supplement in Caterer and Hotelkeeper later in the year. Entries will also be featured on Caterersearch.com on delivery of a 30-word summary
of the product plus contact details.
Details of where and how to send samples will
be provided on the receipt of the entry.
All samples must be received by the deadline specified or
the product will forfeit its entry into the competition.
To enter, complete the entry form in full
online and proceed to the payment page.
