Celebrating the best of the plant-based industry.

ABOUT

Decision makers responsible for purchasing plant-based products are hungry to discover their next best-selling product. With so many companies providing plant-based items, it’s more important than ever to source the right product for your customers and your business: great tasting, appealing presentations, sustainable packaging and attractive margins. The Plant-Based Excellence Awards are a new comprehensive awards scheme judging against these credentials that will champion the excellence coming from this industry.
