How to Nominate
The Catey Awards are awarded to those that have made a real difference to the industry. Do you know someone who has gone the extra mile, or a company or organisation that has set new benchmarks in hospitality provision? If so, we want to hear from you.
To make a nomination all you have to do is click on the category that you wish to enter, give us the name and address of the establishments or people you think deserve recognition for recent achievements and enter a supporting statement. Your submission will then enter our rigorous judging process. There is NO ENTRY FEE!
The Litmus Partnership and TRI Hospitality Consulting, assisted by the Caterer and Hotelkeeper and Caterersearch editorial teams will research the names and prepare a dossier of information on each category. This will allow the judging panels for each category to make a fair comparison of the candidates, working to a given set criteria.
Why should you enter?
Why does winning a Catey mean so much? Because recipients are nominated, selected and rewarded by their industry peers. A Catey statue on your mantelpiece symbolises Caterer readers' collective desire to recognise your efforts in supporting and developing the UK's hospitality scene.
Every nomination received will be entered into a prize draw to win two tickets to the Catey Awards at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House on Tuesday 3rd July 2012.
Judging
There are 20 award categories with 8 judges judging each category. Judging panels are made up from experts in the hospitality industry. The 2012 judging will take place at The Dorchester Hotel, London, April 2012.
Caterer and Hotelkeeper would like to thank the judges of the 2012 Cateys for giving up their time and offering their expertise and industry knowledge.
The judges' decision will be final and no correspondence can be entered into.
