For the fourth year running the BPEX regional roadshows, featuring the awards for excellence, begin their tour at the end of September 2008.

Butchers can enter products into 12 product categories including; sausages, bacon, pies, ready meals, faggots, black pudding and meatballs. They all get evaluated by a team of industry experts and points are given for a range of attributes, among them appearance, consistency, texture, taste and smell. Any awards gained are presented on the night so that butchers can promote their achievements straight away.

This year the tour is joined by an even greater range of trade exhibitors who will be offering butchers, advice, show offers plus demonstrations of their product ranges. Exhibitors this year include: Avery Berkel, A W Smith, RAPs, Bizerba, Dalziel, Lucas, MRC, W J Packaging, W R Wright, Weddel Swift, Wiberg, Europak and A Cold
