Recognising the highest level of achievement in the dairy sector
Midlands Park Hotel, Portlaoise | 13th June 2024
The 2nd National Dairy Awards
Unlike most other awards, all finalists receive a free ticket to the Gala Awards Ceremony, so if nothing else, you are at least guaranteed a great free night out!
Continuing on from our highly successful inaugural awards in 2023, we are delighted to announce the 2nd National Dairy Awards which take place in the Midlands Park Hotel Portlaoise on the evening of June 13th, 2024. The awards celebrate the primary producers, the artisan producers, sector services and the dairy processors as an industry collective. This will be a premier black tie, industry wide, awards ceremony highlighting the best of the Irish dairy sector.
Whether you’re a farmer, farm manager, dairy advisor, dairy vet, dairy beef producer, or an innovator with a passion for animal health, biodiversity, or tech, the National Dairy Awards recognise your dedication, innovation and hard work.
Our celebration of excellence also extends beyond the farm to the dairy artisan champions and processors who elevate our industry with their unparalleled creativity and ingenuity. Plus, we honour the industry leaders who are setting the standard for sustainability, marketing and innovation.
Join us on June 13th to celebrate the achievements of the dairy sector as we award the industry’s top performers. Ireland has a great dairy sector, be part of the excitement as we come together to applaud its champions.
