Martins Ritins Excellence Award to be presented for the first time for culinary arts, hospitality and farming

The Martins Ritins Excellence of the Year Award will be presented in Latvia for the first time on 1 November. It is intended to honour people who, through professionalism, creativity and passion, help develop Latvia's culinary arts, hospitality and farming.

The award will be given in three categories, with nine nominees in total. The available source information does not name the nominees or give the exact titles of the categories, so they are not listed here.

As this is the award's first edition, the ceremony will be its inaugural presentation.
