2022 Awards

2022 awards will represent a bumper year for entries, with numbers up substantially on 2021. This has been no mean feat, considering the disruption the industry has faced in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and the aftermath of Brexit.

Shortlisted companies in the running to win an award at next year’s event include Rich Products, Müller UK & Ireland and ABP.

Winners of the main category awards are also eligible to win the overall Food Manufacture​​ Company of The Year Award. The recipient will be revealed on 10 February and a Judges Special Award will also be given out on the night.

Winners will be announced on 10 February 2022 at London's Hilton Bankside in Great Suffolk Street - within 10 minutes' walk of Tate Modern, The Globe Theatre and Borough Market. The event will kick off at 7pm. Reserve the date and start booking your tables and tickets now​​ ​​for an unparalleled networking opportunity.
