A DELI in North Yorkshire has been shortlisted for an award.
Hunters of Helmsley has been nominated for the second year in a row as Best Independent Retailer in the North of England in the Great British Food Awards, against five other Northern businesses.
Christine Garnett, who owns the deli with her husband Chris, said: "We are delighted to have been shortlisted for a second year in these prestigious awards. We were over the moon to get a highly commended last year, especially when it’s such a tough category. It’s very telling that three of the five finalists for the North of England category are based in North Yorkshire – we have such a wonderful tradition of good food, we’re very lucky."
The deli was awarded a highly commended last year, and is appealing to customers to vote in the awards at greatbritishfoodmagazine.com/awards before until July 17.
Voters will also be put into a prize draw to win one of 36 prizes worth £7,000, including holidays, hampers and kitchenware.
