FEA launches new LET award for Distributor Project of the Year
 FEA launches LET Project of the Year Award

Award celebrates innovation and expertise in light equipment and tableware projects

This year’s LET Forum will have a brand new award, the Distributor Project of the Year, which celebrates the work of distributors in completing contracts in the light equipment and tableware sector.  The winner will be announced during the Forum Awards Dinner on 20th May 2025. 

The award will consider a variety of criteria, including collaboration with suppliers, sustainability and any challenges that the distributor was able to overcome, as well as looking at management, in terms of the project itself as well as time and budget. 

“It’s great that the industry will recognise and applaud the work that LET distributors are doing, especially the innovation and expertise they are bringing to specific projects to meet their customers’ needs,” says Paula Sherlock, chair of the FEA’s LET Group.  “There are a few awards out there for foodservice equipment and design projects, but none cover the light equipment and tableware end of the spectrum.  Which is where this one comes in!” 

The winning distributor will receive a trophy and a bottle of champagne – as well as the prestige that accompanies an award such as this.

The award is open to all LET distributors and any that are shortlisted will be invited to attend the Forum (if they are not already booked in).  The LET Forum is the place to find out about the very latest kitchen gizmos and designer tableware, with leading suppliers bringing their new launches for distributors to discuss and get their hands on.  This year is the 20th edition of the event, and it’s happening at a new venue, the Oxford Belfry Hotel, on the 20th and 21st May 2025. 

The Forum is free for distributors to attend.  Tickets include the Forum itself, accommodation and meals in the Oxford Belfry Hotel, and a place at the Forum awards.  Anyone interested in attending should reserve tickets as spaces are limited.  For more information and to secure tickets click here (tinyurl.com/dd6jcx78).
