There is still time for housewares suppliers to enter products into the Gift of the Year’s (GOTY) Kitchen & Dining Award 2022. Recognising supply chain issues have caused delays for companies, the closing date for the competition (organised by The Giftware Association) has been extended to December 15.
Besides the Kitchen & Dining award, GOTY categories include Ethical & Sustainable Gift, Own Label, Home & Garden and Food & Drink.
