Butcher's Shop of the Year Awards

Butcher’s Shop of the Year Awards

The Butcher’s Shop of the Year Awards are the only UK awards dedicated to recognising this vital sector of the UK market, and to reward vibrant, progressive, locally-based businesses.

Innovative Food Ingredients (IFI) are proud to be a main sponsor of these awards. The event is a celebration of the incredible work being done in our industry, whether through selling game, speciality sausages and pies or by widening the butcher’s shop offer to the consumer to include quality delicatessen, sauces and accompaniments.


“We are delighted to be able to support this event, when we started our family business, it was always in our plans to support the industry and other local family businesses. We love seeing our customers compete in these awards and seeing them earn the benefits of the increased press exposure.

Alongside our main sponsorship, we are also proud to be associated with ‘The Champion of Champions’ Event which will judge the best sausages in the country.

The whole team here at Innovative Food Ingredients look forward to celebrating the event with you in 2022.

David Brennand, Managing Director at IFI
