Nestlé Professional has launched its Toque d’Or competition and hospitality awards which aims to inspire the industry’s next generation and provide them with key skills required to succeed in their career.This year, in recognition of the increasing importance of community and inclusiveness, there will be even more opportunities for young hospitality professionals to get involved. The competition will be open to entry level Front and Back of House professionals as well as college students and apprentices.
All entrants will have the chance to develop a wide range of relevant skills and have the opportunity to work with and learn from a number of leading experts and businesses throughout the competition. Also new for 2021, the competition timeline has been adapted in line with college courses making it easier for lecturers to support students in the process, and to provide the best opportunity to hold the finals and the hospitality awards face-to-face.
The entry task will be sent out on 19 February and consists of a multiple choice examination on nutrition and sustainability on 18 March (reading links will be provided) as well as a one minute video explaining why they are passionate about the hospitality industry and why they should be in the Nestlé Professional 2021 Toque d’Or competition.
Registration deadline is 16 March, the Heats will take place in early April, with Finalists announced on 30 April. The Finals and the Awards will be hosted in the last week of June, with the Awards broadcasted live over YouTube for the rest of the industry to enjoy in the third week of July.
The Institute of Hospitality are proud to be an industry partner of the 2021 Toque d’Or competition.
