Simtom Food Products of Desford in Leicestershire have done it again by being awarded two GOLD AWARDS in one of the world's most prestigious food awards scheme - The Great Taste Awards.

 Simtom Food Products achieve DOUBLE GOLD in world's prestigious food Awards 2007

The two GOLD WINNERS, TANDOORI PASTE and BRINJAL PICKLE were the outright winners in their category when the results were announced following preliminary judging in July 2007 at the Great Taste Awards judging panel. The panel of judges was made up from key culinary 'movers and shakers' and is valued in the industry as the perfect accolade to have under one's belt.

Jai Chandarana (M.D.) commented: "Yet again we are overwhelmed to be recognized in this way and to be marked out from the key players by virtue of our consistently superior quality and service delivery. We have spent some considerable time and investment to get our products right for the market and now the experts have acknowledged what we have always believed to be so, that Simtom products are not only superior in taste, but have demonstrated a consistent record of recognition for success."

This is the third year of entry into this competition and in 2005 their specialist GOR KERI Pickle product won a Silver Award with a Bronze Award going to their specialist SWEET MANGO CHUTNEY. In 2006 Simtom won their first GOLD award for their SWEET LIME PICKLE.

The Award, run by the Guild of Fine Food Retailers, recognizes quality of food & the passion that goes into making it. Several thousand products were entered in the competition across all the food categories

Simtom's achievements prove yet again that the East Midlands are still a force to contend with in the ethnic food market
