Other finalists vying for the award were the Chartered Institute of Building, Federation of Small Businesses, National Residential Landlords Association and UK Hospitality.
Robert Richardson FIH, chief executive of the Institute of Hospitality, who along with members of the Institute’s senior management team attended the awards luncheon, said, “Winning this gold award is a fantastic moment for our team at the Institute of Hospitality. The amount of work they’ve put in through the years on behalf of members is incalculable. So, it’s such an enormous boost to be recognised by the public for the work we do.
“This award is also a commendation for the leadership of our Supervisory Board as well as branch network, all of whom are unpaid volunteers.
“Moreover, it says a lot about our individual members. As an inclusive membership association, we are shaped by the standards and commitment of our membership, which includes hoteliers, restaurateurs, contract caterers, publicans, academics, graduates and suppliers. We hope that winning this prestigious award signals a new era of growth for the Institute.”
