Proud Sponsors of the International Cheese & Dairy Awards

We are thrilled to confirm that Dairi-Pak has taken on the role of main event sponsors for the upcoming Cheese and Dairy Awards! Our strong presence and dedication to the Food, Drink, and Dairy Industries make us a perfect sponsor for this prestigious event. 
Dairi-Pak, true to our name, specialise in providing cardboard packaging solutions to the industry. As a family-owned business based on a farm in Shropshire, we have a deep-rooted connection to the dairy sector. We take pride in supporting independent food companies by offering functional packaging and empowering branding strategies, enabling these companies to establish a foothold in retail markets. 

Tim Gray, owner and Managing Director of Dairi-Pak, has a strong family connection to the dairy industry. His father, Brian Gray, dedicated a significant portion of his professional career to Express Dairies, including Eden Vale and Ski. Brian served as a member of the Board of Directors at their South Ruislip head office. As the Technical Services Director, he was responsible for overseeing all creameries and production/packing sites across the UK. After retiring to Shropshire in the late '80s, Brian transformed a tired 100-acre beef/arable farm into a box factory. Over the years, this facility has been transformed into a state-of-the-art facility and has gained a strong reputation as one of the best-run box factories in the UK. 

In addition to our sponsorship of the event, Dairi-Pak has designed and manufactured the Charity Cheese Selection boxes for the show. We have also been proud supporters of the Midlands Air Ambulance Charity for many years, primarily through our sponsorship of the Borderland Mountain Bike Challenge, which Dairi-Pak has backed for nearly three decades. 

Let's come together at the Cheese and Dairy Awards to celebrate the accomplishments of the industry and forge valuable connections. See you there!
