The winners will be revealed at a gala ceremony in London’s historic Guildhall on Tuesday 12 June hosted by well-known impressionist Rory Bremner.
The Grocer Gold awards were established 14 years ago to celebrate and recognise the very best standards in the grocery wholesale and retail sectors and provide a platform for recognition for all companies from large multiple suppliers to independent retailers.
The 20 categories focus on key business areas such as innovation and customer satisfaction with awards finalists and winners decided by a prestigious panel of 26 independent judges as well as exclusively commissioned research from The Grocer magazine and its partners.
Mark Stewart-Maunder, Henderson Foodservice Business Development Director, said the team were incredibly proud to be shortlisted in the renowned annual awards programme, “The Grocer Gold awards are highly respected within the industry and are judged against stringent set criteria comprising innovation, originality, creative concept, execution, business acumen and results.
“It’s a tribute to our progressive approach, ongoing investment and successful employment growth within a competitive market sector which has helped us achieve shortlisted status in the awards.
“As a finalist in the Employer of the Year category we have demonstrated a positive working environment helping to motivate and train our people whilst at the same time enhancing company performance and reputation. We recently secured the Investors in People Gold Standard and are immensely proud of that achievement also.
I’d like to thank all our staff for their contribution and support in helping us attain both accolades and we look forward to being one of only a few representatives from Northern Ireland shortlisted for the gala awards event.”
