“The team at The Caterer have spoken to so many businesses this year who have told us how supportive their suppliers have been – going the extra mile to ensure their sites stay open, extending credit, finding solutions to shortages and stockpiling equipment for those emergency situations – all examples of how the suppliers in this industry have stepped up.
“All the suppliers on the shortlist and our winners today have supported the NHS, the homeless and those in desperate need of food, drink, and cooking facilities throughout the past 20 months.”
Judge Adam Bateman, culinary director at the Grand hotel in Birmingham, said: “It’s my third year of being involved with The Caterer‘s Supplier Awards, and I can’t wait to return next year. It’s a vital part of seeing new and innovative products from a broad range of suppliers across our industry and, as always, there were some really stand-out products.”
