23/07/2010
Deadline extended for one week only! All entries Must now be in for August 13th!
deliciouslyorkshire is making a final call for entries into the sixth annual deliciouslyorkshire food and drink awards.
The prestigious awards recognise and celebrate Yorkshire and Humber’s food and drink elite, showcasing the sector’s fantastic produce and the outstanding achievements within the region.
New additions to this year’s programme include the Export Award sponsored by UKTI, honouring the best example of a company which is embracing global export markets, and a more interactive online element.
This year there are nineteen award categories recognising farmshops, meat, poultry and game producers, the most outstanding newcomer and the overall supreme product of 2010 among others.
An independent panel, chaired by renowned food writer and former chef Elaine Lemm will judge the entries for 2010. Other high profile names on the panel include, BBC Radio 2 Nigel Barden, BBC Great British Menu Star Tim Bilton, Delifresh chef Robert Ramsden, Harvey Nichols head chef Richard Allen and Michelin starred chefs Frances Atkins, Andrew Pern. and Simon Gueller.
Many previous winners have greatly benefited from their award-win, including Stephen Knox, Managing Director at Yorkshire Dales Meat Company. Stephen comments: “Winning a deliciouslyorkshire award last year certainly helped improve our business. We proudly display our award-winning logo on our sausages and burgers sold in Morrison’s and Asda. Our sales have increased dramatically in the last year, and we have taken on three new staff members, with two more joining us soon.”
deliciouslyorkshire Chief Executive Jonathan Knight says: “With the deadline fast approaching, we’d like to call for last minute entries from all deliciouslyorkshire members.
“We have been successfully running these awards for six years now. Our winners have gone on to achieve great things and consider the accolade a real stamp of approval for quality regional produce. I look forward to seeing this year’s entries and watching the winners flourish into 2011.”
Entry is open exclusively to deliciouslyorkshire members and the winners will be revealed at the prestigious deliciouslyorkshire annual awards dinner on Monday 8 November at Rudding Park, Harrogate. Deadline for entries is 13th August and the awards can be entered at www.deliciouslyorkshire.co.uk/awards.
