Welcome to the 2013 Quality Food Awards

The Quality Food Awards are the most prestigious awards for food and drink products on sale in UK grocery outlets.What sets these awards apart is the impartiality and robustness of the judging process and the invaluable feedback which entrants receive.

The judging panel is comprised of experts from many different parts of the industry including Chefs, Chef Lecturers, Home Economists, Food Photographers, Food Writers, Food Technologists and Regional Food Groups who all bring their knowledge and experience to the debate. The judges take every aspect of a product into account, rewarding great flavours, high quality ingredients, excellent value and outstanding packaging which increases the retail success of a product.

This year we would like to give you an insight in to the expertise behind our judging panel, and have included a short biography of some of our judges.

Building on the success of last year's event, The Quality Drink Awards will once again be presented during a drinks reception in The Court Suite at The Grosvenor House Hotel, prior to the Quality Food Awards drinks reception. Click here for more information.

We are delighted to continue our association with Benson Group as our headline sponsor again this year, and Alaska Seafood who are once again sponsoring our fish category. Our heartfelt thanks go to all of our supporters, as ever, without you, none of this would be possible.

The results of this year's Quality Food Awards will be announced during a glittering ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel on Park Lane in London on 7th November 2013.
