From a personal point of view, it was a pleasure to read all of the comments from these fantastic local businesses. I know that the business owners have got a lot out of the competition, many have told me how good it is to hear how much their customers love them and what they love about them. Many business people just don’t find the time to get feedback from their customers but it can be so worth it!
