Yorkshire's finest food and drink was celebrated
at the annual Deliciouslyorkshire Awards dinner
held at York's historic Merchant Adventurers'
Hall.
The prestigious awards, which were established
by The Regional Food Group for Yorkshire and Humber
three years ago to showcase outstanding produce and
celebrate the achievements of producers and suppliers
of the very best food and drink in the region, attracted
a record number of entries this year.
Wholehead salads supplier, English Village Salads scooped
the Skills Development Award for demonstrating a focussed
and flexible range of training with good evidence of
use of new technology.
For the past 16 years Selby-based English Village Salads
has worked with local growers to supply cucumber, lettuce
and tomatoes to the UK retail market. The company's
skills and training development plans and continuous
improvement initiatives have vastly improved employee
performance and morale.
Dave Kearney, General Manager said "We are delighted
to have won this award which is a testament to all the
hard work of our staff in developing and implementing
new training initiatives. In a business of this size
and complexity it's vital that all our employees have
access to the right training and that this is delivered
in an efficient way".
