We are incredibly proud to announce that Charles Faram has been named Supplier Associate of the Year at the 2021 SIBA Business Awards. This recognition is a tremendous honour, especially following a year that tested the resilience of the brewing and hospitality industries like never before.

A Year of Challenges, A Year of Support

As the industry faced widespread disruption due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our team at Charles Faram remained focused on providing dependable service, expert guidance, and consistent supply to independent brewers across the UK and beyond. Whether through flexible ordering, virtual support, technical advice, or adapting to meet new challenges in real time, we’ve done everything possible to help breweries continue crafting great beer under incredibly difficult circumstances.

To have these efforts acknowledged by the SIBA judging panel—a respected group of industry professionals—is a reflection of the strength of the relationships we’ve built with our customers, growers, and suppliers over many years.

Celebrating Industry Excellence

The SIBA Business Awards were created to celebrate the achievements of independent breweries and their business partners across a wide range of categories, including marketing, community engagement, sustainability, and supplier excellence. For the 2021 awards, several new categories were introduced to reflect the innovation and adaptability shown during the pandemic—making this year’s recognition especially meaningful.

We’d like to extend our congratulations to all the award winners, particularly to Signature Brew, who were named Brewery Business of the Year for the second time—an outstanding achievement and a testament to their vision and execution during a tough year.

A Heartfelt Thank You

This award wouldn’t have been possible without the ongoing support and trust of our customers. We’re genuinely grateful to be part of such a dynamic, collaborative, and creative industry. Supporting independent brewers is not just part of our job—it’s the heart of what we do.

We remain committed to serving the brewing community with integrity, quality, and innovation, and we look forward to continuing that journey with you in the years ahead.
