Finalists announced for Merton Best Business Awards 2023.
Wide variety of shortlisted businesses revealed for the prestigious #MertonBest Awards.
Now in their 11th year, the Merton Best Business Awards celebrate and recognise the local business community with a range of prestigious awards.
CEO of Merton Chamber of Commerce, Diana Sterck, said: “We were thrilled that so many local businesses applied for this year’s awards. The judges were blown away by the stories of resilience, innovation and excellence that they read, and it was harder than ever to whittle down a shortlist. Every Merton business should feel exceptionally proud of their journey over the past couple of years and we are looking forward to celebrating at the award ceremony in October.”
The judging panel, made up of representatives from local businesses, received a fantastic number of applications for award categories including Independent Business Award, Best New Business, Sustainable Impact Award and Top Woman in Business. Members of the public were also invited to join the judging process by voting for their favourite local business that is offering outstanding customer service.
Time & Leisure is Media Partner of the awards. Owner, Lucy Kane says “An exceptional year for the Merton Best Business Awards, the standard of applicants has gone up again making judging harder than ever. Time & Leisure Creative is proud to be sponsoring the Best in the Creative Sector and encouraging this important industry that is at the centre of what we do.”
Congratulations to all the finalists.
