Last chance to nominate your Inspirational Cheese Retailers winners

We have been searching for independent cheesemongers to feature in the third edition of Inspirational Cheese Retailers, and readers have just three days left to share their nominations.

With time rapidly running out, have your say in the third edition and choose your worthy winners. 

When we put together our last instalment, the government had just announced its ‘living with Covid’ strategy and independent retailers had to adjust to the ‘new normal’ after two years of restrictions that challenged the entire sector.

As a result, the 2022 edition of Inspirational Cheese Retailers featured profiles of some of the UK’s most exciting and successful cheese shops that evolved throughout the Covid-19 pandemic and Brexit, as chosen by professionals and cheese-loving consumers across Great Britain. 

15 cheese retailers were hand-picked from dozens of nominations, each one chosen for outstanding performance in a particular niche, such as ‘Community Spirit’, ‘Positivity Champion’, ‘Artisan Expert’ and ‘Traditional Icon’. 

Claiming the title of Positivity Champion, Lucie O’Meara, owner of The Cheese Society, told Speciality Food, “We have a lovely relationship with our customers and cheesemakers, and one of our main points of focus is to make each day at the cheese society as enjoyable as we can. We don’t take ourselves too seriously, but we take our cheese very seriously indeed!”

It is passion like this that makes the speciality food sector such a rewarding environment, and we want to celebrate retailers championing these values.

This year, we will be showcasing a new batch of worthy winners who are champions of their local region and the very best cheese from around the world. 

So if you know an independent who deserves to be named as one of 2023’s Inspirational Cheese Retailers, click here to fill out the simple form and nominate your winners, it only takes a minute.
