class="grids"> <div class="grid-8 column-1"> <div class="advertisement"> </div> <div class="single-box clearfix entry-content" itemprop="articleBody"> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The judging panel upholds the utmost standards of excellence, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of each entry.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Each submission undergoes thorough assessment based on a wide range of criteria, encompassing fit for purpose, visual appearance, mouthfeel, consumer/market appeal, packaging and design, aroma, flavour, consistency, and quality but also some additional vital aspects.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One crucial factor that the judging panel considers is the product's relevance and suitability for its intended purpose. Whether a fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) item or a foodservice product, the entry must fulfil its intended function and meet its target audience's needs and expectations.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This criterion ensures that the products excel in taste and quality and demonstrate practicality and usability. The judging criteria cover commercial success or prospect of commercial success, innovation, and how successfully the product satisfies a market need. Products are scored using a point system heavily weighted on commercial viability.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Furthermore, sustainability plays a pivotal role in the evaluation process. As retailers and consumers increasingly prioritise eco-friendly practices, the judges consider the products' environmental impact. Factors such as responsible sourcing of ingredients, packaging materials, waste reduction efforts, and general sustainability practices are considered. Products that align with these values and contribute to a more sustainable future are highly regarded.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Additionally, the judges assess the level of innovation and uniqueness demonstrated by the entries. They look for products that push the boundaries of creativity, introducing novel concepts, ingredients, or flavour combinations that captivate consumers and differentiate themselves in the market.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Innovation, coupled with exceptional execution, is a key aspect that sets winning products apart from the competition.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another significant aspect is the product's ability to meet consumer preferences and address evolving market trends. The judging panel evaluates how well the entry aligns with current consumer demands, considering dietary preferences, cultural considerations, health and wellness trends, and emerging flavour profiles. Products anticipating and catering to these evolving preferences have a greater chance of resonating with consumers and achieving market success.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The judging panel ensures a comprehensive assessment of the entries by expanding the evaluation criteria to include factors such as fit for purpose, innovation, market relevance, and alignment with consumer preferences. This holistic approach recognises excellence in taste, quality, and presentation and acknowledges the ever-changing landscape of consumer expectations and sustainable practices.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The New Zealand Artisan Awards, with its dedicated and knowledgeable judging panel, continues to set the benchmark for recognising outstanding products that delight consumers while aligning with their values and aspirations.</span></p> <div class="sc-separator type-thin"></div> <h3 style="text-align: center;">Meet Our Key Judges</h3> <h2 style="text-align: center;"><b>Tania Walters</b><b><br /> </b><b>Head Judge & Founder of New Zealand Artisan Awards</b></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><img data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-177097 alignleft" src="https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201-500x499.png?resize=351%2C350&ssl=1" alt="" width="351" height="350" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201.png?resize=500%2C499&ssl=1 500w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201.png?resize=1024%2C1021&ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201.png?resize=290%2C290&ssl=1 290w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201.png?resize=1536%2C1532&ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201.png?resize=330%2C329&ssl=1 330w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201.png?resize=690%2C688&ssl=1 690w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201.png?resize=501%2C500&ssl=1 501w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-16-e1695177618201.png?w=1586&ssl=1 1586w" sizes="(max-width: 351px) 100vw, 351px" />Tania Walters is a highly experienced industry professional with an extensive food and beverage sector background.

They were the winner of Best Metropolitan Restaurant 2021/2022, Best drinks list 2021/2022 and on top of all this, they also were awarded 2 Chefs Hats from Good Food Guide. An outstanding set of achievements despite the year they all had with Covid hardships, setbacks and major staff shortages. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Executive Chef at Ahi, Mikhail (Mike) Shatura told us about his journey to becoming a Chef, Ahi’s special garden and the creative freedoms he expresses through cuisine and creating. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Shatura was born and raised in Vladivostok, Russia. He always had an interest in cooking but after doing a degree from Auckland University, he worked for 2 weeks in an office space. Not long after, he found that the office environment didn’t quite suit him or his personality. “So, I decided to pursue a career in cooking. I’ve never looked back since.” </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The ability to pursue creative freedom and the power of putting a smile on people’s faces through food is Shaturas’ favourite part of being a Chef. Looking to the future, he sees challenges for the hospitality industry with a lack of young chefs coming into the industry. “I’m looking for “hungry”, inspired and motivated young talent to share the knowledge with,” he revealed. He encourages young people who are interested in hospitality and tells them the journey is worth it. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Be prepared to work hard, self-educate along the way, research and always push yourself to be better. This is the way.”</span></p> <div class="sc-separator type-thin"></div> <h2 style="text-align: center;"><b>Ben Bayly</b><b><br /> </b><b>Ahi Head Chef</b></h2> <h2 style="text-align: right;"><b><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-177094 alignright" src="https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760-500x508.png?resize=346%2C352&ssl=1" alt="" width="346" height="352" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760.png?resize=500%2C508&ssl=1 500w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760.png?resize=1024%2C1041&ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760.png?resize=285%2C290&ssl=1 285w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760.png?resize=1511%2C1536&ssl=1 1511w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760.png?resize=330%2C335&ssl=1 330w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760.png?resize=690%2C701&ssl=1 690w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760.png?resize=492%2C500&ssl=1 492w, https://i0.wp.com/supermarketnews.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RC-Portrait-Images-13-e1695177296760.png?w=1586&ssl=1 1586w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 346px) 100vw, 346px" /></b></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ben Bayly is one of New Zealand’s premier chefs, and is always on the lookout for new, exciting and innovative products.
