Primum Familiae Vini (PFV) has created an award worth €100,000.

The PFV Prize is not focussed only on the wine business but can be from any industry.

The award will reward a family company in any area of enterprise that demonstrates excellence in sustainability, innovation, craftsmanship and successful transition from one generation to the next.

Founded in 1992, PFV hopes the prize will contribute to other family businesses that continue pushing their vision of a better world for generations to come.

President of PFV Marc Perrin put words to their emotions:

‘By announcing this prize at a time of international crisis resulting from Covid 19, we emphasize the long-term thinking of family companies and our inherent optimism about the future providing we defend the right values. We in the PFV believe that family companies are the bedrock of regional and national economies.

‘The best family enterprises have a profound commitment to sustainable development and to the environment. Family companies should personify the best values of social responsibility and the kinder human face of free enterprise at a time when globalisation and a rather depressing uniformity have become increasingly prevalent.’

Applications for The PFV Prize 2020 can be made from 1st July at www.thepfvprize.com  and will close on 30 October 2020.

A short list of five family-owned companies will be published in January 2021 and the winner announced in March 2021.
