The Bar & Beverage Awards South Africa 2023 is thrilled to announce that entries are now open for its Beverage Awards submissions categories; for the first time recognising supporting industries that drive service excellence for the drinks sector.
The inaugural Bar & Beverage Awards South Africa is set to become the most significant recognition one can achieve in the industry, placing it alongside other prestigious international drinks awards such as Tales of The Cocktail Spirited Awards.
And as the hottest date to hit the drinks industry calendar this year, the Bar & Beverage Awards Gala Ceremony 2023 promises to be a spectacular affair.
“We anticipate these categories to be highly coveted and an exciting addition to the awards. It is important to recognise the individuals and companies that support the industry and drive service excellence, and we are delighted to provide a platform for them to showcase their accomplishments” says Paul Reynell, Director of the Bar & Beverage Awards.
Any brand, distributor or agency may submit an application to be considered for an award. To ensure transparency and proficiency, the judging panel will be comprised of a robust panel of 32 highly respected captains of industry, led by drinks writer and educator Leah van Deventer. Judges are eligible for awards but will be recused from judging any award they’re nominated for, or where they have a conflict of interest.
Each submissions category recognises the best in their respective fields and highlights the innovation, creativity and a dash of showmanship that the South African beverage industry is known for.
The categories are:
- Best New Local Cocktail Ingredient
- Best New Local Spirit
- Best New Local Liqueur or Spirit Aperitif
- Best Brand Campaign
- Best CSI Campaign
- Best Brand Manager
- Best Sales Representative
Entries close on 31 May 2023. To submit an entry in any of the above categories, visit https://www.barandbeverageawards.co.za/
