Wenlock Spring Highly Commended at The Vendies 2026

Wenlock Spring was Highly Commended in the Best Water Brand category at The Vendies 2026. The awards brought together people, brands and businesses from across the vending industry for a celebratory lunch and afternoon, giving the team a welcome opportunity to share the occasion with fellow finalists and award winners.

Wenlock Spring has been Highly Commended in the Best Water Brand category at The Vendies 2026. Held on 3 June, the Vending Industry Awards brought together finalists and award winners for a celebratory lunch and afternoon focused on the people, brands and businesses making an impact across vending.

The recognition followed Wenlock Spring's place on the finalist list for the 2026 awards. For our independent, family-run Shropshire business, it was a welcome moment and an opportunity to celebrate alongside many other businesses from across the sector.

From finalist to Highly Commended

Ahead of the event, we shared our best wishes with every finalist and looked forward to joining the wider vending industry for the occasion. Being named among the finalists in the Best Water Brand category already gave us a reason to feel proud.

The result made the day even more memorable. Wenlock Spring received a Highly Commended recognition in the category, placing the business alongside an excellent group of finalists and award winners. We were grateful to see the work behind the Wenlock Spring name acknowledged as part of the 2026 awards.

Celebrating the vending industry

The Vendies provided an opportunity to recognise the breadth of people, brands and businesses contributing to the vending industry. The lunch and afternoon centred on their achievements, with finalists and award winners sharing an occasion designed to celebrate the sector's work.

That sense of shared celebration was present before the doors opened. In our message ahead of the awards, we wished every finalist good luck, while after the event we congratulated both the finalists and the award winners.

That wider setting made the recognition particularly meaningful. Awards are about more than a single result. They also bring the industry together and provide a moment to acknowledge the businesses and people working across it.
