A BRAND NEW EVENT, BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE Qs  | NOMINATE NOW FOR FREE

WELCOME TO THE WOMEN IN FOOD & DRINK AWARDS

Part of The Qs family, the Women in Food & Drink Awards aims to celebrate the outstanding achievements of women across UK and Ireland’s food and drink sector. These awards recognise the remarkable contributions of women across all job functions and levels within the food and beverage supply chain and aim to spotlight those who are shaping the industry and future of a more diverse and inclusive sector.

The awards champion women’s leadership, innovation, and impact within an industry that employs millions but still faces a striking imbalance in representation. From manufacturers to wholesale, from agriculture and manufacturing to retail, foodservice, and hospitality, these awards will recognise the very best women in our sector.

Nominations Close Friday 19 December 2025

"As co-founder of Women in the Food Industry, I’ve seen first-hand how recognition can transform confidence and open doors. The Women in Food & Drink Awards are set to be more than an event - they are a platform for change. They will give women across our sector the visibility they deserve and highlight the power of representation in driving progress. I urge everyone to get involved, champion the women who inspire them, and help build a future where equality and opportunity are central to our industry’s success."
