We are delighted to announce we are finalists in the Farm Shop & Deli Retailer Awards 2024, in the best Online Business category!
The Farm Shop & Deli Retailer Awards, in partnership with The Grocer, is a highly respected prize within the industry and plays an important role in supporting and celebrating the UK’s independent specialist retail market. Retailers from up and down the country have been assessed to find winners from each category and region, and the live announcement is a must-see event at the UK Food & Drink Shows.
Judging took place last November, where an esteemed panel of judges came together in person at Fortnum & Mason in London for a day of deliberations and decisions. From this they created their shortlist of category finalists, whittled down from hundreds of entries, by taking into consideration the achievements retailers have made in the independent sector.
The 74 successful businesses span 11 categories: Baker; Butcher, Cheesemonger; Delicatessen, Farm Shop Large, Farm Shop Small, Fishmonger, Food Hall, Greengrocer, Online Business (the category we're finalist in) and Independent local shop/Village store. They cover seven UK regions: Anglia, Midlands, North England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, South England and Wales.
The Awards organiser, William Reed, has been helping businesses succeed since the launch of The Grocer in 1862 and the drive to inform and serve their sectors flows through everything they do today. The Farm Shop & Deli Retailer Awards are no exception and, for the over ten years, they have celebrated, and supported, the speciality retail market by utilising their reputation and reach in the sector.
Wish us luck!
