Scottish Retail Food & Drink Awards Aims to Showcase Excellence

Helen Lyons said: "The Scottish Retail Food & Drink Awards aim to seek out and recognise businesses and enterprises of all sizes from all corners of Scotland. Interest in provenance, locally and nationally sourced products has arguably never been higher than it is today. In addition sales of own label products have continued to grow in Scotland in the last 12 months and we want to shine a light on some of the incredible innovation that continues to develop in this exciting area of the market. These new awards aim to provide a fantastic platform to bring more producers and retailers together."
