The 2023 PR%F Awards marked a year of extraordinary growth and expansion, establishing itself as the largest competition in the event’s history. This year, we were thrilled to welcome esteemed judges
from across the U.S., including buyers from major brands like Walmart, and a wide array of new prestigious awards to honor the industry’s top-tier players. Among the highlights were two unique competitions:
PR%F Awards-Masked, a double-blind tasting, and PR%F Awards Unmasked, where brands were judged on their overall package – from taste to design.
The 2023 competition included over 1,000 bottles of spirits, wines, and other beverages, all evaluated for their craftsmanship and creativity. With the PR%F Awards Unmasked recognizing exceptional bottle designs, brands that stood out in both taste and packaging walked away with beautiful, bespoke medals, as well as increased exposure in Food & Beverage Magazine, reaching millions of readers.
A special recognition was given to Women-owned and Kosher brands, with each being presented with additional accolades to honor their contributions.
