Guild of Fine Food Revenue and Competitors

Guild of Fine Food was formed in 1995 with a mission to support artisan food and drink producers and the independent delicatessens, farm shops and food halls that mainly stock and sell their food and drink. With over 1,300 members across the UK, the Guild is a publisher, events and awards organiser and training provider, with a network of activities designed to promote excellence in all sectors of the trade and build closer links between producers and retailers. Fine Food Digest is ‘the industry voice' for speciality food retailers and producers and through the School of Fine Food, trade delegates are trained in cheese, the business of retail and on selected deli products. Organisers of two awards schemes, Great Taste and World Cheese Awards, and the Fine Food Show North, the Guild of Fine Food is at the centre of the fine food world. Great Taste was launched 25 years ago and has become the acknowledged benchmark for speciality food and drink in the UK and around the world. Each year 500 experts blind taste over 12,000 foods. Only the best are awarded one-, two- and three-star awards. World Cheese Awards is celebrating its 32nd year and brings together the world's industry in an annual, one day judging event of over 3,000 cheeses. With an HQ in Dorset, the Guild also runs a food and drink event space around the corner from Borough Market, London's oldest market.
