Industry Recognition Is Waiting — But Not For Long

The countdown is on. Entries for the FPC Fresh Awards 26 close this Friday, 19 June, and businesses across the fresh produce, flower and plant supply chain are being urged not to miss their chance to step into the spotlight.

Recognised as the Oscars of the fresh produce and floriculture industry, the Fresh Awards celebrate the people, businesses, teams and innovations driving excellence across one of the UK’s most vital sectors.

At a time when the industry continues to face rising costs, labour pressures, climate challenges, supply chain disruption and ever-increasing customer expectations, recognition has never mattered more. These awards are not simply about trophies. They are about visibility, credibility, morale and commercial opportunity. They are about showing customers, colleagues, partners and the wider industry what outstanding performance really looks like.

Whether you are a grower, supermarket supplier, wholesaler, foodservice specialist, independent retailer, international supplier, business service provider, technology company, marketer, HR team or sustainability leader, there is a category designed to recognise your achievements.

The awards also celebrate the people behind the progress, from Rising Stars and Managers of the Year to outstanding teams and lifetime achievers whose contribution has helped shape the sector.

Crucially, entries are completely free, and companies are welcome to enter multiple categories. For many businesses, the material is already there: the projects delivered, the challenges overcome, the people developed, the innovations launched and the results achieved. What remains is simply to tell that story.

Being shortlisted alone can raise profile and create a powerful point of difference. Winning can open doors, strengthen reputation and provide a moment of pride for the whole team.

The Fresh Awards 26 will take place on 25 September 2026 at Grosvenor House, Park Lane, London, bringing together the very best of the industry for a night of celebration, networking and well-deserved recognition.

But first, you need to enter.

With entries closing this Friday, 19 June, now is the moment to act. Don’t leave your success story untold. Enter the FPC Fresh Awards 26 and give your people, your business and your achievements the recognition they deserve.
