Comments from a couple of last year's category winners show the awards are held in high esteem. Marketing manager for Multivac UK and winner of the 2019 Industry Supplier Award, Laura Affleck, said: "Working in the meat industry has opened my eyes to all the hard work that goes behind each meat product you see on the supermarket shelves. The Women in Meat Awards is a great event to be involved in and to support other women in the industry."Dawn Speers, technical manager for ABP, won the Manufacturing/Processing Award in 2019, added: "This initiative recognises the importance of women in the meat industry and helps to show a different and diverse perspective to anyone thinking about a role in meat."Visit the website to make your nominations before
