This year’s event, sponsored by Florette, takes place at the London Marriott, Grosvenor Square, and will highlight the top performers in what has been a difficult year for the industry. Re:fresh Partnership member Tommy Leighton, of Lockwood Media, said: “The awards are judged by independent industry insiders and therefore represent the ultimate recognition of excellence within fresh produce circles.
“For a company to demonstrate that it has out-performed its peers in such a competitive commercial environment is a tremendous accolade and a boost to its employees, as well as to its reputation and standing across the fresh produce industry.”
Any awards that do not have a sponsor’s name against them are available for sponsorship for the 2009 event. Contact Tommy Leighton on 020 7501 0306 or tommy@fpj.co.uk
