The golden pencil award
Recognizing Canadians for Outstanding Service in the Food Industry
The Golden Pencil Award was first presented in 1957 by The Food Industry Association of Canada. This Award was initiated to recognize the efforts of both buyer and seller in developing and improving the Canadian Food Industry. The symbol used for this Award is a “Golden Pencil”, signifying the transaction between supplier and retailer by the stroke of a pencil.
On an annual basis, the Nominations Committee reviews suggestions made by both the Executive Committee and the industry at large. The selection process normally will encompass as many as sixty to seventy worthy candidates. The criteria for selection is an individual who, through career dedication, has made a significant and worthwhile contribution to the Canadian Food Industry.
The Executive Committee is comprised of active senior executives representing suppliers, brokers, food processors, wholesalers, retailers and associations.
