The World Plant-Based Awards 2021, in association with Plant Based World Expo and sponsored by ADM, are now live!

Following the success of FoodBev’s inaugural World Plant-Based Awards in 2020, we are excited to launch the second edition of this upcoming event, which pays homage to the most innovative companies in this fast-paced industry.

A live ceremony will be held during this year’s Plant Based World Expo in New York, US, on Thursday 9 December, to recognise and celebrate excellence across every sector of the burgeoning global plant-based sector.

Last year, the judging panel considered over 220 entries from all corners of the globe, and despite the coronavirus pandemic, the winners and finalists were announced during an exclusive virtual ceremony hosted in association with Plant Based World Expo.

Matthew Rushton, marketing manager at FoodBev Media said: “When we decided to launch the World Plant-Based Awards scheme in 2019, we had a feeling it would be a success. We could not have foreseen the circumstances of the past year, but we were thrilled these conditions did not stifle innovation, and delighted to receive significant interest from companies across the food and beverage industry.”

“This December, we are looking forward to hosting our first-ever live World Plant-Based Awards in New York, at Plant Based World Expo. I am excited to celebrate the raft of innovative plant-based products that are driving the sector forward.”

There are 15 categories in total to enter, ranging from plant-based products and packaging, through to technology innovation and brand recognition. Smaller challenger brands and start-ups, and more established brands are all invited to enter your plant-based innovations.

Entrants that submit their entries before September 3rd will also be entitled to our early bird discount, saving £55 on your regular entry price. With our small business rate options available the awards are now more accessible than ever before
