The passion and support of consumers is very important to South Australia's food and beverage manufacturers and producers, making the Consumer Awards one of the most popular, and hotly contested, awards in the South Australian Premier's Food and Beverage Industry Awards each year.
Entry in the Consumer Award is open to South Australian food and beverage manufacturers and producers. A business can be nominated by a consumer, or the business may nominate themselves. Consumers do not have to be resident in South Australia to nominate their favourite South Australian food or beverage business for the Consumer Award.
This award is judged on the number of votes the business receives and businesses can - and should - actively promote their nomination among your networks to encourage votes. The 20 businesses with the most votes will be named as the Top 20 for 2020, and the winner of the award will be the business with the most votes. The Top 20 will be announced in October when the finalists for open categories in the awards are announced. The winner will be announced at the South Australian Premier's Food and Beverage Industry Awards Gala Dinner on 13 November 2020.
Previous winners of the Consumer Award include:
The Consumer Award LegendThe South Australian Consumer Award Legend has been introduced to reward those businesses who have won the Consumer Award at least three times - a testament to the loyalty of consumers to these great South Australian brands and to the quality of their products. This is the kind of consumer love all our food and beverage businesses yearn for, and work so hard to achieve.
The South Australian Consumer Award Legend was introduced in 2018, when Robern Menz were recognised as the inaugural inductee.
"Being inducted as the inaugural recipient of the Legend Award means so much to us as it demonstrates not only what industry professionals are thinking aout Robern Menz and the FruChocs brand, but also how we are perceived by the public," said Robern Menz CEO Phil Sims on receiving the award.
"We're enormously thankful for the loyalty we've received over the years, as a three time winner of the Consumer Award and now [with] elevation to Legend status."
