Prestige Scotland, part of Sodexo UK and Ireland, has won the best Business to Business Corporate Event award at the Scottish Event Awards.

This is a second triumph for the company, who won the accolade for its running of hospitality services at The Open Championship at St Andrews this year.

The Gateway Centre at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, where Prestige Scotland provides catering, event and sales and marketing services, was named the Best Unusual Venue.

This year, The Open celebrated its 150th anniversary, and Prestige Scotland and parent company Sodexo Prestige had 800 staff working at the event for client, The R&A.

Speaking after the awards ceremony at the Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow on September 9, Prestige Scotland regional director Austin Tilsley said: "The Open Championship is truly one of the greatest sporting events in the world and it is a privilege for our team to be associated with such a high profile event.

"The R&A are a fantastic client to work with and they fully understand and appreciate the many challenges we face during the event. For our chefs, managers and staff this event gives our organisation the opportunity to display our full range of skills at the highest possible level."
