The Lifetime Achievement Award is decided by the Neighbourhood Retailer editorial board. While the board may nominate an individual based on their perceived contribution to the industry, nominations and self-nominations are welcome.

The Awards will run alongside Ireland’s Convenience Retailer Summit on the 18th of September in the Clayton Hotel, Burlington Road, Dublin. Now in its fourth year, it has developed a reputation as Ireland’s leading retail conference, bringing together the greatest minds in the convenience, food-to-go, and grocery trade. 

Excitement is building as a host of international speakers prepare to descend on Ireland for a special one-day conference, trade show, and Gala Awards Ceremony. Set to be bigger, better, and more inspiring than ever before, eight globally-renowned speakers – some of whom have never been seen before in Ireland – will be exploring the theme “WHAT’S NEXT FOR FOOD-TO-GO” through a series of high energy, informative presentations.

This is a must-attend event for any owner, CEO, director, or senior manager of a team within a neighbourhood, convenience, food-to-go, deli, cafe, symbol group, supermarket, forecourt, wholesale, restaurant or eating out-of-home business.

This is a huge market and throughout this action-packed day, speakers will inspire, motivate, and ignite ideas designed to help you grow your business in the food-to-go space over the next five years. Supported by Ireland’s top trade bodies and organisations including Retail NI, RGDATA, CSNA and Petrol Retailers Association, this is one networking event you can’t afford to miss.
