Culinary Hotel Awards Comes to Norway – Millum Becomes a Key Partner for the New Hotel Award
After the great success of the first Culinary Hotel Awards in Sweden earlier this year, the prestigious hotel award is now coming to Norway. The award ceremony is organized by the renowned magazine Restaurangvärlden and will take place on October 27 in Oslo, where hotels that excel in food, beverages, quality, and sustainability will be honored. Millum is participating as a partner to highlight and support the development of the Norwegian hotel industry – and to demonstrate how a procurement system tailored to the industry can contribute to increased control, reduced costs, and more sustainable operations.
Millum Aims to Elevate the Norwegian Hotel Industry
As the Nordic region’s largest procurement system for the hotel, restaurant, and staff restaurant sectors, Millum sees the sponsorship as an opportunity to help elevate the Norwegian hotel industry – while also strengthening its position in the domestic market.
Food and beverage experiences have become an important part of Norwegian culture, and this award gives us an opportunity to support players who set the standard for quality and sustainability. We are proud to help highlight the best hotels. Marketing Director at MillumTiril Zelow Bliksmark
Millum consolidates contracts, suppliers, prices, and product selections in one place, offering tools such as menu planning, a stocktaking app, and a CO₂ calculator. This gives hotels and restaurants using the system better control, reduced costs, and a stronger foundation for more sustainable operations. These are precisely the factors that make them better equipped to stand out in an award ceremony like the Culinary Hotel Awards.
As a Norwegian company with in-house developed technology, it’s especially exciting to contribute when the award is being presented in Norway for the first time. We want to show that Norwegian technology can be a driving force for both better restaurant experiences and more sustainable solutions.Zelow Bliksmark
