Food and Drink Business is very excited to announce it will be hosting its own awards program in 2024. The Hive Awards have been created to recognise innovation and excellence in the food and beverage manufacturing sector.

Why The Hive Awards?

In developing the awards, we wanted the name to reflect the complexity, inter-connectedness, ambition, and tirelessness of Australia’s food and drink manufacturing sector.

And we couldn’t go past the concept of bees and their hive, a flawless system that runs 24/7, driven by a dedicated and determined workforce to consistently deliver a product to the highest standard.

The official launch will be in January, but you can head to The Hive Awards now and register your interest.

We already have wonderful companies on board as award sponsors:

Gold Sponsors – Combilift and Hydroflux

Silver Sponsors – Hawkins Watts Australia, Heat and Control, and Trimatt

Bronze Sponsor – Process Partners

If you would like to join them, please contact national sales manager, Sharon Amos.
