BOOM Awards - you've entered, what's next?

We want to say a big thank you to everyone who entered the BOOM Awards 2023! We’ve had hundreds of entries so it’s shaping up to be a very competitive judging season. Over the coming months we will be planning and preparing for judging. Please see further info below for the next steps within each BOOM Awards category.

 
Organic Food & Drink Product Awards 
These categories are blind tasted by an independent and expert panel of judges. They are judged on quality and taste, not organic story. Businesses who entered the Food & Drink product categories will all be contacted by the start of April 2023, with detailed instructions on when and where to send product samples. The only exception is the Best of New Organic Products Award and Best of Organic Baby & Children’s Products, which are also judged on evidence submitted at the time of entry.
 
Best of Organic Beauty & Wellbeing Products and Best of Organic Fashion & Textiles and Home Products
These awards will be judged by our brand-new panel of experts who will review all the information submitted by entrants, with the top three finalists being asked to send products for testing. Finalists will be contacted by the start of April with instructions on when and where to send product samples.

Best of Organic Business Awards
These awards celebrate a wide range of organic farms, businesses and initiatives working hard to produce, sell and serve organic. They are judged remotely based on information submitted upon entry, and do not require product samples to be submitted.

For more information, please see the BOOM Awards Judges page on our website. We’ll be in touch soon, but for any questions in the meantime please direct to boom@soilassociation.org
