Institute of Meat hands out annual awards
A total of 15 prizes were presented at the annual Institute of Meat and Meat Training Council Awards at Butchers’ Hall, London. Prizewinners came from widely differing meat industry backgrounds and ages.
Congratulating the prizewinners on their awards, the chairman of the MTC Bill Jermey said “It’s good to see a wide range of ages among the prizewinners. It goes to show that you never stop learning.”
For many of the prizewinners, it was their first visit to Butchers’ Hall. The Master of the Worshipful Company of Butchers’, Jeffrey Davies, told them that 95% of liverymen of the Company were connected in some way with the meat trade.
He went on to thank Fred Mallion, who had announced each of the prizewinners, for everything he had given to the meat industry and education over many years.
The Master of the Poulters Company presented the Poulters’ Company Award.
