Following a few weeks of intense judging, The FAB Awards have released their list of Finalists for the 23rd edition of their awards programme, which is focused entirely on work done for Food and Beverage brands.
The Awards, which each year attract entries from all over the world, recognises the critical contribution that outstanding creative work makes to build brands. It identifies and rewards the leading practitioners globally and acknowledges their contribution to their Clients and their Agencies.
All Finalists of The 23rd FAB Awards are already assured to win a silver, and The FAB (gold) and FABulous (grand prix) Awards will be announced via an “Online Awards Presentation”. Traditionally, The FAB Awards Ceremony is held at the quintessentially British and exclusive, The Hurlingham Club in London. However, some Social Distancing measures are still in place and The Awards will be announced for the second year running on YouTube. The Awards Presentation will on Thursday, 17th June.
“We are acutely aware that these are unprecedented and extremely challenging times for so many around the world and our thoughts and heart are with all those affected. It is perhaps even more important to recognise, applaud and celebrate the incredible efforts of our Industry Teams and all involved in the Creative Process” says N. Nayar, Awards President at The FAB Awards, whilst releasing The Finalist List.
The FAB Awards had revealed a Brand New Identity in 2020 following a complete Brand Redesign by renowned Brand Consultancy – Williams Murray Hamm.
The actual Physical Trophies have been redesigned too and made from Recycled Packaging.
