The mushroom sector: we are all part of it. Everyone who is directly or indirectly involved in giving consumers daily choices from a wide range of delicious mushrooms is a partner in our industry. For decades, the sector has experienced tumultuous developments and this is unlikely to change in the coming years. Many people who are active in the mushroom sector do their utmost to give their company or organization a good future.
However, there are also those who develop initiatives that transcend the interests of their immediate environment. The performance of which results in vital momentum for the entire sector. As true ambassadors, they contribute to the positive image of our mushroom sector, the landscape of which would probably look very different without their efforts.
These are the people that Stichting Champignondagen wants to reward for their enormous services to the sector by presenting the ‘Ambassador of the Mushroom Industry Award’. This award is intended for those who, as a true ambassador, contribute to a positive image of the mushroom sector. During the Mushroom Days 2023, this prestigious prize was awarded to four people.
