ABOUT THE FAB ESG & SUPERSTARS AWARDS
Welcome to the second virtual edition of the FAB Awards for employees in the food & beverage sector in the airport community and other travel-related sectors. This year, the return of the FAB Superstars awards will once again shine the spotlight on the thousands of front-of-house and behind the scenes heroes and heroines who have helped keep the food & beverage community within our industry going throughout the challenges of the last year.
In addition, a new category of ESG Awards has been added to celebrate, recognise and reward those people and initiatives that have made a positive impact in the areas of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG).

Our advisory committee and judges are industry consultants Nick Inkster, who spent 25 years in senior roles with SSP; Kevin Zajax, Director at Ground Control Global and formerly responsible for Dubai-based Emirates Leisure Retail; and Ann Elliott, owner of Ann Elliott Hospitality Consultancy – a passionate, hospitality strategist, connector and advisor working with operators, suppliers, and investors in the sector to create growth, demand and profit for brands and businesses.

“In 2021 we recognised the extraordinary FAB Superstars who had shown individually, and collectively, great kindness and courage in the face of huge pressure. Now, in 2022, we look forward to our world opening up again, and I imagine there will be many more amazing stories of the people and businesses that make our sector special. I’m delighted to be a part of the judging team again this year .”
