Great Taste Bursary

Places for the 2023 bursary have now been allocated. Please check back ahead of Great Taste 2024 for more information about the next Great Taste Bursary.

Celebrating 30 years of Great Taste

To celebrate the 30^th anniversary of Great Taste, we’re offering 50 micro producers the chance to put one product in front of our expert panel of Great Taste judges for FREE.

Recognised by consumers and retailers as the world’s largest and most trusted food and drink accreditation scheme, Great Taste is an opportunity for your product to be assessed by chefs, buyers, food writers and retailers. No matter the accolade you receive, our rigorous process provides every entrant with impartial, honest feedback from industry experts.

Great Taste is for everyone, which is why this year we want to make sure that no matter the size of your business, you have the opportunity to achieve the Great Taste seal of approval and recognition your product deserves. The bursary has been designed especially for emerging micro producers who might normally find the entry fees and process prohibitive.

Who can apply?

If you meet the following criteria, we would love to receive a bursary application from you:

1. Your business is less than two years old.
2. Your business has a turnover of less than £100,000.
3. Your product is commercially available in the UK.
4. Your product has not been entered into Great Taste before.

Don’t forget, you can only submit one product!
