Nominations are now open for the long awaited 2019 Chesterfield Food and Drink Awards and we would love the opportunity to make the shortlist again… or even take home a win!
Two years ago, Northern Tea Merchants was proud to be shortlisted for Food Producer of the Year award and James Pogson has previously been awarded the title Food Hero, in what has become the main event of the town’s hospitality calendar.
The Chesterfield Food and Drink Awards are organised by Destination Chesterfield and are an opportunity to celebrate the local talent and businesses in the food and drink industry.
Now back for their seventh year, it’s impossible not to look forward to the glittering black tie ceremony – there’s little better than being in a room full of people contributing so much to the town and local economy.
James Pogson, Director at Northern Tea Merchants, said: “The Food and Drink Awards are a great way to shine a light on a sector that thrives in Chesterfield. We’re proud to be a part of the food and drink scene in the town and be able to supply high quality teas and coffees to several flourishing businesses in the area, as well as the many people who we welcome to our own shop and The Pekoe Café at Northern Tea Merchants on Chatsworth Road.
“Being shortlisted for Food Producer of the Year last year was a real honour. With some incredible food producers and cafes in the area, the competition is strong. But, as they say, ‘you have to be in it to win it’. So, if you think we’re getting things right – please do nominate us!”
You can nominate Northern Tea Merchants across a number of categories in the awards – Food Producer of the Year, Café of the Year and Best Customer Service.
Nominations are open until midnight on Wednesday 12 June. You can find out more and make your nominations at www.chesterfield.co.uk/foodanddrinkawards.
