The FreeFrom Food Awards are the UK’s only award for the massively expanding freefrom food industry. This year they will be presented by Antony Worrall Thompson on 21st April.

The Freefrom food market has expanded from £106 million in 2006 to an estimated to £360 million by 2012. The FreeFrom Food Awards, the only industry awards to recognise excellence in this sector, are now in their third hugely successful year.

Over 1,000 freefrom products have been judged over the last year by the Foods Matter Food Awards tasting panels which include food allergy/intolerance sufferers, food professionals and ‘normal’ members of the public to benchmark the freefrom products against ‘normal’ foods. Only three tastings remain before the publication of the shortlist on March 8th.
