The CBMAs is the first awards program of its kind. It is a
worldwide competition that focuses specifically on excellence in
the artistic and creative marketing and packaging efforts of
breweries, drink makers, designers, and agencies that continue to
play an increasingly critical role in differentiating brands in a
heavily-saturated beverage retail marketplace.
"After five years of fine tuning the CBMAS into a highly
successful world-class awards program, we're excited to further
commit to our inclusion of multiple craft beverage types by
announcing a slight, but important, change in our name," said CBMAs
Co-Founder, Jackie DiBella-Curry.
"For our 2025 season, we'll officially be known as the Craft
Beverage Marketing Awards, hoping to attract even more amazing work
across the craft industry."
DHL's BevPros returned as the returning sponsor again this year.
Additional sponsors include Isuzu Commercial Truck of America,
Steel City Taps, and EGC Group Craft Beverage Marketing.
"DHL is proud to sponsor CBMAS for the fifth consecutive year
and recognize those bringing great brands and marketing to life in
the beverage industry," said Prabh
Hans, DHL BevPros, Head of Kegs & Domestic Services.
