2023 was another challenging year for the food and drink supply chain. Supply chain issues, high food inflation figures, labour shortages, cyber-attacks, and ongoing EU transition issues, to name but a few of what businesses have faced. This category recognises companies that weathered considerable storms during 2023.

Tell us how your business has coped with a challenging situation during the year. It may have been your plan to manage growth in challenging times, employee retention strategy, a loss of a key market or maybe a technical project that didn't go entirely to plan! Show us how your organisation has worked through the difficulties to emerge stronger.

The judges will be looking at the magnitude of the issue relative to the company's scale.
