Endeavour Group has announced the winners of its inaugural Supplier of the Year Awards.
Taking place last night (12 May), the event was held at the Timber Yard in Port Melbourne. Entertainer Tim Campbell hosted the evening, with Endeavour Group Director – Buying & Merchandising Tim Carroll and Endeavour Group Managing Director and CEO Steve Donohue opening and closing the evening.
“The calibre of winners across a broad spectrum of areas – including sustainability, product development and brand activation – reflects the innovative and creative spirit of the broader drinks industry,” says Mr Carroll.
