HOW TO ENTER

Bring your chosen product to the Best Product Award room, located in the Hall 4 Dressing Rooms next to Vehicle Access Door 4.4 (at the back of the hall) on Saturday 17th January (if you are in and out on Friday only, then please bring it to the organisers’ office and we will take it across on Saturday).

There will be a refrigerator and freezer for chilled/frozen food products, however we do not have refrigerated display cabinets in the BPA section of the show, so winning chilled food entries will require either packaging or a graphic of the product. 

Please remember to bring a card or sheet to accompany your product, stating your Category, Company Name, Stand Number, Recommended Wholesale Price and Recommended Retail Price, as well as a short piece about the product.

Products will be judged by independent judges on the Sunday morning of the show with 5 finalists in each category on display during that day in the cabinets in the centre of the Show. The winners will be announced at 5pm in the Talking Shop Seminar Theatre. Each category will receive their certificates to display on their stands and their winning products will be put on display in the feature area at the centre of the show.
