DRINKS RETAILING AWARDS
The annual Drinks Retailing Awards are the only event where supermarkets, independents and convenience retailers come together to celebrate the brilliant achievements of the whole off-trade, throwing the spotlight on businesses that excel in product range, customer service and making drinks special. Our judging process is one of the most rigorous on the awards circuit, ensuring that Drinks Retailing Awards winners really are the very best in the business.

BUYING TRIPS
Our buying trips provide a fantastic opportunity for a company or brand to get to know our readers on a personal basis. A Buying Trip can be tailored to specific readership sectors, such as independent retailers. Trips tend to involve 2-3 days away in the country of the producer, with tours and tastings.
