HECK!, we’ve got a busy few months coming up! We’ve been shortlisted for awards in The Grocer Gold Awards 2024, The National Egg & Poultry Awards 2024 AND The National Family Business of the Year Awards!
Can you believe it? We’ve only gone and got ourselves shortlisted not one, not two, but FOUR awards! Now it’s time to shine a spotlight on what exactly we’ve been shortlisted for:
The Grocer Gold Awards 2024
Hosted by The Grocer, The Grocer Gold Awards 2024 celebrate excellence in the grocery retail and wholesale sector. We’re lucky enough to have been shortlisted for Employer of the Year (Supplier), a category that recognises organisations that look after their employees as well as their customers. We believe in investing in our people and fostering a culture where work feels like a second home. With a special dog house for keeping our beloved pets in whilst we work away to providing opportunities for training and development, HECK! goes above and beyond to ensure our team feels valued and empowered to reach their full potential.
The National Egg & Poultry Awards 2024
We managed to bag ourselves a shortlist in two separate categories in this year’s National Egg & Poultry Awards! Our very own Mica Keeble has been shortlisted for Young Processor of the Year, a recognition of her achievements and excellence in her role at HECK! and the sector as a whole.
We’re also pleased to share that HECK! has also been shortlisted for the Sustainable Farming Award at the National Egg & Poultry Awards. This award is particularly close to our hearts, as we’ve been working hard behind-the-scenes to ensure that everything we produce is made as sustainably as possible. We’ve recently introduced carbon labels on our packaging so shoppers can make informed decision when doing their weekly shop, and we also grow our own herbs right here on the HECK! farm so they can go straight from the source and into our sausages!
The National Family Business of the Year Awards
Organised by Family Business United, The National Family Business of the Year Awards celebrate the achievements of family firms across all sectors in the UK. As a family business built from scratch right in the heart of North Yorkshire, we’re super proud to share that we’ve been shortlisted for Yorkshire Family Business at this year’s awards. We believe it’s thanks to our deeply rooted Yorkshire spirit has made HECK! what it is today, so we’re looking forward to celebrate alongside other family-run businesses on 19 June.
Now we just wait and keep our fingers crossed until the big night(s) and see what we come home with! Whatever happens, we’re looking forward to celebrating alongside our colleagues at both HECK! and across the industry.
