Dishoom CEO Brian Trollip honoured as Person of the Year at R200 awards

The R200 awards are held every year to honour the best and brightest in hospitality, celebrating the key achievements in the UK restaurant industry over the past year. This year’s awards and dinner were held at Hawksmoor in Canary Wharf, with hundreds of attendees present to toast their peers.

Dishoom’s CEO, Brian Trollip, was delighted to be honoured at this year’s ceremony, scooping the prestigious Poppleston Allen-sponsored Person of the Year award.

The award recognises outstanding achievement and innovation in the hospitality sector, and Trollop’s contributions to the industry have been widely celebrated by peers and industry leaders alike.

Trollip joined Dishoom in 2010 to oversee its operations and has been instrumental in the restaurant chain reaching 13 sites across England and Wales, with a US expansion also planned. His influence has extended beyond Dishoom’s walls, playing a part in shaping UK hospitality standards by advocating for fairness, responsible business practices, and sustainable growth in the industry.

This is the latest accolade for the B-Corp certified restaurant chain, as they were named as Omni Channel Brand of the Year at R200 2022 Awards.

Lisa Inzani, presenter of the award, comments: “This award win reflects Brian’s  leadership,  dedication to service excellence, and the impressive strides he has made with Dishoom in a competitive, evolving industry. A thoroughly deserved win!”.

Poppleston Allen, a leading legal firm specialising in licensing for the hospitality sector, was a proud sponsor of the award. Their support for the R200 Awards highlights their commitment to honouring hospitality leaders who set the benchmark in the hospitality field.
