Orders of Merit announced at Conference 2018
Where would the foodservice industry be without the committed individuals who work tirelessly for their organisations and trade associations? The key ones you can always rely on, who go the extra mile, the ones you turn to when the chips are down.
At the CESA Conference 2018 the Association announced 19 winners of the Foodservice Industry Order of Merit, which recognised the selfless work of these people. They represent a wide range of organisations, including trade associations, guilds and charities. What they all have in common is their absolute dedication to their cause.
Glenn Roberts, the outgoing chair of CESA, presented the awards during the Conference session on November 15th. “Without their hard work our industry would be far poorer and weaker,” he said. “Their contribution and commitment is beyond value and we salute them.”
