The award was presented by the British ambassador to Ireland, Dominick Chilcott at a reception in the ambassador’s residence.

Glennon Brothers will now compete for the Ruban D’Honneur in the next round of the competition.

“To win this award is testament to the flexibility of our dedicated team, who have worked incredibly hard to find innovative solutions as their traditional markets collapsed,” said Pat Glennon, joint managing director of Glennon Brothers.
