Eden dairy nominated for prestigious industry award

A Cumbrian dairy has been nominated for a prestigious industry award.

Winter Tarn Dairy, in Crosby Ravensworth, has been named as a regional finalist in the Farm Shop & Deli Show’s Retailer Awards.

The award shortlist selected by a panel of judges includes some of the UK’s best loved specialist retailers, pillars of their respective communities and champions of great produce and sustainable practice.

This year the judges had the daunting task selecting their long list of finalists from the hundreds of entries received this year.

This year the panel paid special attention to the ways in which retailers have adapted and evolved their businesses in recent years, with a particular focus on businesses undertaking sustainable initiatives while also supporting their customers, communities and suppliers and demonstrating business innovation.

The resulting businesses span 12 categories and nine UK regions. The regional winners will be revealed live at the Farm Shop & Deli Show, being held at the NEC Birmingham on Monday April 25.

Harry Jackson, of Winter Tarn Dairy, said: ‘’We are over the moon to be listed alongside some of the best specialist retailers in the UK. We have concentrated on delivering a great product to our customers and being shortlisted goes some way to demonstrating that we are getting it right and are heading in the right direction.”
