It’s great to see the British Kebab Awards continue to go from strength to strength and to return for its ninth year. These awards celebrate not only the food that has become an adopted staple of British cuisine, but also the business owners and entrepreneurs who are a key part of our hospitality industry. As someone who once ran my own small business providing food service packaging to the catering trade, I know just how hard people in hospitality work, and these awards provide us with an opportunity to rightly recognise and acknowledge them.

I’d like to congratulate all the nominees and wish them the very best of luck on the night.
