NATIONAL FISH AND CHIP AWARDS CEREMONY 2019

Fish Focus is looking forward to attending the National Fish and Chip Awards Ceremony today in London. The awards celebrate the nation’s favourite dish and recognise and reward those who are providing us with the best fish and chips across the UK, both in terms of food and service.

Recognised as one of the most prominent and respected seafood industry events in the UK and widely considered as the ‘Oscars’ of the fish frying industry, the awards celebrate the great British tradition of fish and chips, rewarding the best talent, quality and choice offered by fish and chip businesses.

Now in their 31st year, the National Fish & Chip Awards recognise and reward businesses producing the best fish and chips across the UK.

The awards aim to support the wider fish frying trade in their effort to maintain their share of the quick service/takeaway/fast food market – and seek to:

– reward individual excellence in a range of different award categories

– raise quality standards and provide a benchmark for businesses to aspire to (performance feedback is provided to all entrants)

– provide a robust platform from which to undertake a wide variety of media activity promoting the sector and its many diverse facets, and to encourage the continued consumption of fish and chips amongst both the UK population and visitors to the UK.

There are a variety of award categories and businesses are appraised on criteria ranging from sustainable sourcing practices, customer service, hygiene and staff training, and most importantly, the quality of fish and chips.

We would like to wish all the finalists the best of luck!
