What are the Great British Food Awards?

The Great British Food Awards celebrate the finest food and drink products across the UK. These awards are designed to honour producers, growers and artisans who excel in crafting exceptional products, showcasing the best of British cuisine.

Once a product is entered, it is evaluated based on criteria specific to its category, including ingredients and overall look and taste. Shortlisted entries are then reviewed by our panel of expert judges who select the Gold, Silver and Bronze winners.

Some of the key features of the awards include:

  • Our esteemed judging panel: Products are judged by a panel of top chefs, food critics and experts, ensuring a high standard of evaluation.
  • Our huge range of categories: These cover a wide range of food and drink categories, including baked goods, meats, cheeses, beverages and more.
  • The unrivalled coverage winners receive: Winners receive significant exposure, boosting their reputation and helping them stand out in the competitive market. This includes print, digital and social coverage. 
  • Unlimited use of award badges: Winning entrants will receive an awards badge and logo which can be included on product packaging, marketing materials and social media free of charge and for an unlimited amount of time. 
     

The Great British Food Awards are a prestigious platform for showcasing talent and quality in the UK's thriving food and drink industry, making them a benchmark for excellence and our awards logo has become a recognised seal of approval among consumers.

 

Put Your Products in the Spotlight

These awards are ideal for brands seeking to gain industry recognition and showcase their dedication to the food and drink industry, and there are many benefits to be had from being involved.

Statistics show that buyers trust accolades and awards, and winning entrants will receive an awards badge and logo which can be included on product packaging, marketing materials and social media free of charge. 

Shortlisted entrants also have the opportunity to have their products tried and tasted by some of the biggest names in the industry (including the likes of renowned chefs such as Raymond Blanc and Michel Roux Jr) and Gold winners receive detailed feedback from the judges. 

On top of this, Gold winners will gain national coverage in Great British Food magazine and across our social platforms, and all winners will be featured online.
