Gourmet Food Parlour has been named as one of Ireland’s Best Managed companies in the Deloitte Best Managed Companies Awards programme, in association with Bank of Ireland. The company, which demonstrated superior business performance for the second year, was recognised at a gala awards dinner in Dublin on 6 March.

Commenting on the award, Lorraine Heskin CEO, Gourmet Food Parlour said “We are delighted to be awarded as one of Ireland’s best managed companies for the second year in a row. It is a great achievement and testament to all of the teams across our seven restaurants and catering business to achieve this accolade for the second year running. We hope to increase our interaction with the Deloitte team going forward and nurture lasting relationships into the future. This fantastic programme opens up a new family of business associates who we can work with in different capacities to further our mutual business goals”

Anya Cummins, Lead Partner for the Best Managed Companies Awards Programme at Deloitte said: “While Irish companies across all sectors navigate issues such as talent acquisition and retention, continuing uncertainty around Brexit and regulatory challenges, the management teams of the winning companies have demonstrated their razor-sharp focus on their objectives, an agility to adapt in a disruptive market place and to innovate and use technology as a real differentiator for them.”
