Deadline to enter the Grantham Journal Business Awards is getting close
Only four weeks are left to enter the Grantham Journal Business Awards, so don’t delay!
The deadline for entries, and nominations, is Friday, September 1.
This year will mark our 24th awards ceremony – recognising the very best businesses from Grantham and the surrounding area.
Finalists find out who has won at the gala dinner, which will once again be held in the marquee at Arena UK, Allington, on Friday, November 17, 2023.
There are 12 awards up for grabs, so no matter what your line of business there’s bound to be a category for you.
They range from Employer of the Year and Best Social Enterprise, to Business of the Year and Businessperson of the Year.
There is also the Judges’ Prestige Award – this award is not eligible for entry. The recipient will be chosen by the judges and will receive an engraved plaque, sponsored by Pentangle Engineering, to keep until the 2024 business awards.
Journal editor Marie Bond said: “Last year’s Grantham Journal Business Awards night was fantastic, and I’ve no doubt this year’s will be just as exciting.
“The excitement begins with the entries, as we see who has impressed enough to be nominated and which local businesses have done well over the last 12 months and are keen to put themselves forward.
“The awards are the highlight of the business calendar, and we are incredibly proud to be able to offer the spotlight to the many deserving businesses that make it into the final three in each category.”
