The shortlist for the Farm Shop & Deli Retailer Awards 2025 have been revealed, comprising 52 finalists. 

Held in partnership with The Grocer and championed by Fieldfare, the awards are an annual celebration of Britain’s independent specialist food and drink retailers.

Hundreds of entries were studied by judges from across the industry. Factors taken into consideration included achievements made in the independent sector and testimonials from suppliers and customers.

The 52 shortlisted businesses span seven categories. Awards will also be given for newcomer of the year and the ultimate accolade of retailer of the year. See below for the full list of finalists.

The winners will be announced at the Farm Shop & Deli Show, which will take place from Monday 7 April to Wednesday 9 April at NEC Birmingham.

“It is wonderful to meet the inspiring and enthusiastic people behind the businesses,” said judge Matt Whelan, MD of Fieldfare. “I love finding out more about them, their businesses and their aspirations for the future. The awards finalist announcement has a real buzz to it. It’s great to be there and celebrate the achievements within our industry, network and learn from our colleagues.”

The Farm Shop & Deli Show is part of the UK Food & Drink Shows, which unite four events under one roof, covering the complete food and drink supply chain.

In addition to Fieldfare, the 2025 Farm Shop & Deli Retailer Awards are supported by Fabulous Farm Shops, Farm Retail Association and GoJute.
