The judges said that under the leadership of Pete Newton, “newness, uniqueness and offering something sensational, you simply can’t find anywhere else but Booths”, set the regional retailer apart from the others.
Pete Newton, Beer and Spirits Buyer at Booths said: ‘’Booths take pride in developing relationships with smaller emerging breweries.
Supporting small producers has never been more important for Booths. This award win is great for Booths, but even better for our artisan supplier base and our customers who get to sample and taste something truly delicious, whatever their choice of brew!”
