SEVENTH HEAVEN FOR BRAKES AT THE Q AWARDS

Brakes celebrated success at this week’s Q (Quality Food) awards, winning seven of the 14 product categories on offer.

Already with a reputation for innovation in the sector, having dominated food awards over the past few years, winning more major awards than its rivals combined, Brakes continued that streak, winning in the Bread and Morning Goods, Cakes & Desserts, Fish, Pasta and Pizza, Condiments, Cooking sauces and Vegan categories.  In addition, the company was highly commended or commended in seven categories.

Stuart Smith, Merchandising Director for Sysco GB, said: “We have a singled-minded focus on driving innovation in our market and are pleased that our investment is being recognised.

“The next 12 months will be a challenge for our sector and it is vitally important that we identify products that make a demonstrable difference to our customers, whether that’s a time-saving ready-to-bake croissant, a centre of plate inspiration like our Scottish Loch Trout Fillet Suprêmes or a personalised dessert like our Gluten Free Vegan Chocolate Truffle Brownie Torte.”

  • Brakes La Boulangerie Ready to Bake Large Croissant
  • Brakes Gluten Free Vegan Chocolate Truffle Brownie Torte
  • M&J Seafood Scottish Loch Trout Fillet Suprêmes
