Awards season is upon us
Well the award entering season is upon us, so we wanted to share a few that we thought you might like to consider entering.
We all know how important it is to get recognition and endorsements for your products, business and your team. You work incredibly hard making your delicious products so shout about them.
See What is Inside a Grub Club’s Event Box
The Grub Club goodie bags have been legendary for years. Packed full of great products, they have enabled sponsors and attendees to continue sharing their products and sales information even after the evening’s event is over. Well, goodie bags just got an upgrade! Our Event Boxes are now what everyone is talking about.
An exciting collaboration for our next event
As Event Manager on Speciality & Fine Food Fair I am proud that over the last year we have evolved in creative ways to add value to the fine food community and help support them during the pandemic. In addition to our Fair, which is planned again for 6-7 September this year, we are constantly working with the industry to create year-round initiatives and opportunities to help artisan producers and independent retailers move their businesses forward.
Festive (virtual) Networking in Association with Delishops
Well, it was our first ever online networking food event and it’s fair to say it was great fun! After so many months apart, it was wonderful to welcome 38 participants from food-related businesses online for a 2-hour fun-packed networking evening.
