This year\u2019s Marketing Derby<\/a> Food and Drink Awards were backed by an enviable line-up of sponsors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hospitality industry has had a particularly tough time over the past few years \u2013 from the impact and legacy of the coronavirus pandemic to the cost-of-living crisis and rising energy prices.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

These were just some of the many reasons why our partners decided to come on board and give our fantastic food and drink businesses the recognition they deserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, the awards were backed by the following companies and organisations: Bustler<\/a>, The Chocolate Factory, Denby Pottery, Royal Crown Derby<\/a>, Catering24<\/a>, Rothera Bray<\/a>, Derby College Group<\/a>, Ocean King<\/a>, NK Motors<\/a>, trentbarton<\/a>, Q Branch Consultancy<\/a> and Matthew Montague Architects<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marketing Derby would like to extend its thanks to this year\u2019s Food and Drink Awards sponsors for sacrificing their time \u2013 and, in some cases, their waistlines \u2013 in support of the city\u2019s food and drink sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special thanks also go to the University of Derby<\/a> for sponsoring the newly updated Food and Drink Awards Guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
