Anticipation is building the inaugural Foodstuffs Partnership Awards that is set to take place on August 29 at Te Pae, Christchurch. Over 250 suppliers from 47 companies will join Foodstuffs Owner Operators at the event.
“Last year’s awards were part of Foodstuffs Expo and a great success. This year we’re really looking forward to hosting the first standalone National Partnership Awards at Te Pae in Christchurch. It will be incredibly special to have the opportunity to celebrate the unique contribution our suppliers make to ensure Foodstuffs’ customers have an amazing choice of exciting, innovative and sustainable products that fit into their lifestyle and budget," said David Stewart, General Manager of Merchandise at Foodstuffs North Island.
Awards from the evening include Category Excellence Awards, Members Choice Awards and Foodstuffs National Awards. All of which celebrate the exceptional work and vital role suppliers played in 2021.
“The Awards promise to be a calendar highlight. The dedication and passion we see every day from our supplier community is outstanding. As co-operatives, it’s important to us to work alongside businesses that reflect our own values and support our commitment to excellence. Congratulations to all the finalists and we look forward celebrating their success on the night," said Damian Lynch, General Manager of Merchandise and Wholesale at Foodstuffs South Island.
