The judges of the Awards John Savage and Ron Neville will visit each of the shortlisted sites in person to talk to operators and assess the quality of the work carried out. The overall winners of the six categories will be announced during the Ceda Conference Gala Dinner, on Friday, September 30th.
Adam Mason, director general of Ceda, said: “The shortlist is of a very high calibre and covers the breath of food service and hospitality - the judges really do have a task on their hands to decide upon the eventual winners.
“The launch of the Operator’s Choice Award is to form deeper engagement with the operator world and give them a better understanding of the outstanding work that Ceda members deliver. I look forward to seeing member presentations live at Commercial Kitchen, and revealing the winner a few weeks later at the annual Ceda Conference.”
