Faccenda Foods is Processor of the Year
Faccenda Foods, one of the UK’s leading food companies, has won the Processor of the Year award at the Pig and Poultry Marketing Awards. These annual awards recognise excellence within the industry and aim to ensure that the UK pig and poultry sectors receive the recognition and promotion they deserve.
All pork, poultry and egg producers were eligible for this award, which was sponsored by Cobb. The awards highlight companies that have developed successful food supply chains, built on good relationships and sound business principles. It also hopes to promote companies and individuals nationally for their innovation and their forward thinking attitudes.
Faccenda Foods won for its focus on partnerships to develop innovative products, its responsibility in managing the supply chain and commitment to people at the heart of its strategy.
Managing director Andy Dawkins comments: “We pride ourselves on recognising the importance of good supply partnerships and developing our people, so this award is great recognition of our achievements so far.”
