Autogrill Group wins 9 awards and tops the ranking of number of awards received.
This year too, Autogrill Group took part in the Airport Food & Beverage (FAB) Conference & Awards, the international event launched in 2011 by The Moodie Davitt Report for the airport food & beverage sector. The Group picked up 9 awards and for the second year running topped the ranking in terms of number of awards received.
This year’s theme was “People, Partnership, Progress, Planet”, with a special focus on sustainability during a two-day marathon of talks bringing together key players in the world of food & beverage, including Andrea Cipolloni, CEO Autogrill Europe-Italy, and Walter Seib, CEO HMSHost International within the Group’s sponsored ‘Progress’ pillar session.
Concluding the event and making their debut this year were the FAB ESG Awards, reserved for people and initiatives that have had a positive impact on the environment, society and corporate governance. The ESG Award categories include: Best Women Leadership Initiative; Humanity, Leadership & Inspiration; Best Practice: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion; Champion of Cultural Change; Sustainability & Environmental Stewardship; Best Health & Wellbeing in the Workplace.
Following their success last year, the FAB Superstars Awards return, set up to recognise the thousands of frontline “heroes” and “heroines” whose daily commitment and resilience helped keep the travel Food & Beverage industry running during the pandemic period. Individuals and teams are recognised as FAB Superstars in three categories: Star Team, Star Individual and Innovation (Team or Individual).
Autogrill Group received nine prestigious awards, thus topping the ranking of number of awards received for the second year in a row, and stood out in terms of both the multinational variety of its team and projects, reflecting the Group’s international reach, and its excellent results in the new “FAB ESG AWARDS” category, reflecting its commitment to the environment and sustainability.
