Recognizing the contributions and achievements of bottled water professionals has a long and celebrated history at IBWA. Since 1961, we’ve been faithfully taking time to pause and acknowledge that without the dedication of our member companies and their staffs, the bottled water industry would not enjoy its past or current success.
Thus, IBWA is proud to announce that we are now accepting applications for the 2010 IBWA Awards Program.
The deadline for nominations to all awards listed below is June 15, 2010. The winners will be announced at IBWA’s General Session on Thursday, September 23, during the 2010 IBWA Convention and Trade Show (co-locating with InterBev) in Orlando, Florida, September 20-24, 2010.
