The Southern Co-operative

Sussex Food Producer of the Year

Sponsored by The Southern Co-operative, Phil Ponsonby, Chief Operating Officer, (Food Retail & Services), explained why:

"Sussex has a wealth of wonderful food on it's doorstep and The Southern Co-operative is proud to have over 20 of the county's food producers supplying our stores- so as well as offering our customers a truly unique food experience, we are also playing a small part in the bigger picture of helping to keep Britian's food economy alive and sustainable.

The Sussex Food & Drink Awards is a celebration of those producers that are showcasing Sussex produce at it's best, and we are delighted to be sponsoring the award for Sussex Food Producer of the Year as a demonstration of our ongoing passion and commitment to local food and local communities."
