  • The time has come to shout about your business in the annual Best New Cheese Retailer Award. Your chance to put your business on the map!

Have you been open less than two years? Is British cheese your raison d’etre? Are you constantly seeking out the latest varieties for your counter? Are you keen to tell the world why our nation’s cheeses are the best? If the answers to these questions are yes, yes, yes and yes, then you need to enter the Best New Cheese Retailer Award.

Once again, The British Cheese Awards and Speciality Food magazine are on the hunt to award one British-focused, cheese crazy retailer who really knows their stuff when it comes to home-produced cheese.

Whether you’re a deli, cheese monger, farm shop or food hall, if you’ve been open less than two years and sell British cheese, you need to enter the Best New Cheese Retailer Award.

Aside from the opportunity to shout about your business, previous winners have received an abundance of local and national publicity, the praise of their peers and a dedicated feature in Speciality Food magazine.

Not only that, the winner will also receive free tickets, travel and accommodation to the British Cheese Awards Trade Day, two free places on one of Juliet Harbutt’s renowned cheese courses and a trophy to proudly display in-store.

With competition rife, the judges will be looking for stores that are committed to British cheese, have a real passion for our nation’s artisan creations and really put their heart and souls into selling it.

The award is now open for entries and Speciality Food is calling on interested retailers to prove their worth. Use the form below to submit your entry.
