Veggie Awards 2022

Shining a light on the  cruelty-free  and  eco brands  of tomorrow

THE 2023 VEGGIE AWARDS ARE HERE...

Here is your chance to become a standout brand in the plant-based and ethical industry that consumers will trust

Why you should enter

The Veggie Awards provide the perfect opportunity to have your product tried, tested, and then judged by some of the best-loved experts, celebrities, and influencers in the plant-based and ethical industry.

All winners will receive a special awards logo they can use on their marketing materials and will gain coverage through the Veggie platform.

Entries are now open and close on 2nd October 2023, and the cost is £199 + VAT for up to 5 products!

HOW THE AWARDS WORK

Stage One

Simply enter your products by midnight on 2nd October in any of our extensive range of categories and then send them to us for initial testing. The knowledgeable Veggie Awards team will judge products based on the criteria set for each category, and will create a shortlist of the top 10-15 products in each one.

Stage Two

Shortlisted products will then be sent to our expert and celebrity judges later in October 2023, who will rate the products according to the criteria set for each category. They will then select their winners and highly commended products.

Stage Three

The winning and highly commended products and brands will be announced here and across our social media platforms in January.

The judges

The well-loved judges joining our panel this year are still being confirmed but you can be sure they’ll include some of the UK’s best-loved vegetarian and vegan celebrities and influencers. In previous years the likes of Katy Beskow, Aine Carlin and Martyn Odell have all been involved. Check back soon for more details.
