Any Questions?
We have 3 award chapters: supplements, food & drink and skincare. You must enter your product into the correct one. If you make supplements as well as skincare or food, you can enter each into the relevant section. Each Award chapter has its own categories.
For the purposes of the award, edible food and drink where flavour is relevant is judged in the Food & Drink awards – functional foods & drink category. This includes hot drinks or snacks with adaptogens, magnesium or products with added vitamin or nutrition boost. To be classed as “functional” there must be a significant amount of active ingredient in the product, so it provides the same benefit as a supplement would.
Once entries have closed, we send out the sample delivery window and address where you can send your samples. Receiving large volume of samples from all over the world is a huge logistical challenge each year, so we must ensure that our storage facilities and packing teams are ready to receive and and safely store your samples until they needed for judging.
Yes, you can enter them in the food and drink categories but not in Supplements or skincare. If you have a chilled supplement this will be judged in the functional food / drink category however, it will be judged in line with all other supplements. We have a dedicated delivery window for all chilled and frozen products. Fresh products receive a specific date to deliver samples based on their individual judging day. If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch to discuss your individual requirements.
Food and drink are judged on location by a panel of 5-7 judges. All samples are prepared by our catering team and served to the judges fresh. Supplements and skincare are judged remotely – our team distributes all samples to the judges, with the process taking place over several months and includes research and sampling. All entries are scored, ranked and feedback is provided by judges.
You can use the winner’s logo for 2 years. After that time, we ask that you re-enter the product. Outdated logos are not a good look, in addition trends, technology, scientific understanding and competition changes greatly over time so we recommend you re-enter the product after 2 years to ensure the evaluation is kept up to date.
This question is asked on our PIF – so it is essential that your complete the form as soon as possible so the correct delivery window can be allocated.
We receive samples from all over the world. While we can’t assit with shipping directly. we provide you with shipping instructions ahead of time. You will be responsible for all duties and taxes.
Yes, if you have it, although it is not a problem if you don’t. We receive many products each year without retail packaging, simply because products are not on the market yet. If you do not have your finished packaging yet, please make sure that you give full information on your PIF and send us a mock-up or photo of your packaging. We do not deduct points for this and we do not judge packaging however, it helps the judges understand your product fully and make recommendations.
We are still able to give you the judges’ feedback, which can provide crucial information on why the product did not achieve recognition. This is very valuable for refining your recipe or formulation and for all NPD.
Supplements: 7 units | Skincare: 6 units
Food & Drink: Minimum 2 units and enough quantity for 10 people to try. Baking mixes – 3 units. For second categories we need additional samples but not double. Note, we do not need 10 units as food and drink samples are shared between judges. More detailed information will be provided when we request the samples. If you are unsure, please contact us prior to shipping your sample.
