Lisette Coston, executive director of support services, St. Francis Health System, Tulsa, OK, and incoming national president of the Association for Healthcare Foodservice (AHF) is one of the recipients of The International Foodservice Manufacturers Association's (IFMA) 2014 Silver Plate Awards, which recognize excellence in eight segments of foodservice operations. 

In addition to healthcare, honored segments included elementary and secondary schools, colleges and universities, specialty food services, and chain full service, according to an article on the Food Management website.

Winners are chosen by a jury that includes national trade press editors, foodservice experts, past award winners and the chairperson of the International Gold & Silver Plate Society. From among the eight Silver Plate winners, one is chosen to receive the IFMA Gold Plate. 

The winner of the 2014 Gold Plate Award will be announced at the Gold & Silver Plate Awards celebration on May 19th.

“We are privileged to award this year’s class of Silver Plate recipients. The Gold & Silver Plate Awards are the IFMA community’s way of celebrating greatness within the operator community and acknowledging the leadership and dedication these particular individuals have put forth to advance the foodservice industry,” said IFMA President/CEO Larry Oberkfell.
