“Winning both best managed pub company and best sustainable pub company is an incredible honour,” said chief executive Kevin Georgel.
“These awards reflect the hard work, passion, and talent of our teams right across the business, from our pubs to our breweries and drinks wholesale operations.
“Our managed pubs are where everything we do comes to life — our fantastic beers, delicious food, and the brilliant people who deliver memorable experiences for our guests every single day.
“To receive such significant industry recognition in our 175th anniversary year feels particularly fitting. I couldn’t be prouder of our teams and everything they have achieved.”
Emily Coon, sustainability manager at St Austell Brewery, said: “Taking home the award for sustainable pub company is a meaningful moment for us. It recognises the progress we’ve made, as well as our ambitions for a brighter future.
“Our pubs across the South West — and teams throughout the business — have shown such passion over the past year, bringing our strategy to life within their day‑to‑day roles and helping drive us forward.
“This award reflects that company-wide commitment as we continue to embed sustainability into our operations. There is still much more to achieve, but this recognition is a powerful motivator as we continue our journey towards delivering even greater impact in the years ahead.”
Continuing its winning streak, St Austell Brewery also took home five bronze trophies this week for its first major rebrand in more than 70 years. The Transform Europe Awards recognise excellence in brand strategy across the continent.
