FOOD AWARDS

OVERVIEW

All food award categories are judged 100% by anonymous site inspections which require voucher funds to be provided to cover the cost of judging.

SITE INSPECTION INFORMATION

Ensure all staff are aware that you are entering the awards and that they can expect a judge to visit the property anytime between 11 June - 5 September 2025.

JUDGING FUNDS

For food award categories, properties must provide funds to cover meal costs associated with judging. This ensures judges can comfortably and anonymously experience the property to its full extent without financial constraints.

There is no set limit on the amount; however, we strongly encourage each property to allocate funds that adequately reflect the pricing and scope of the items being judged, as these will vary by property.

This can be done through the AHA NSW Awards website when entering nominations by selecting ‘voucher funds’.
