Less than 2 days to go until The Made In Bury Business Awards and the tension is mounting!
This Friday see's the very first Made In Bury Business Awards, hosted by thebestofbury in association with Bury Council and media partner Tower FM.
We are so excited to be hosting what is going to be a fantastic event and can't wait to reveal who the winners are!
The Made In Bury Business Awards will recognise and reward local businesses that are flourishing in the current climate. We have such a diverse range of businesses on our very doorsteps and the event has been an eye opener as to who is out there and how much they have really achieved in business.
The judges have had such a tough decision choosing their top 3 but the day has almost arrived when everyone finds out who the winners are. Results have been a closely guarded secret.
The awards luncheon takes place this Friday 22nd November at The Longfield Suite in Prestwich and starts with a drinks reception, a 3 course luncheon and then the awards themselves - the moment we've all been waiting for.
We would like to say a BIG thebestofbury "good luck" to all of the shortlisted entries and we hope that you have a fabulous day!

OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
To be revealed............................................
We would like to congratulate each and every business that entered this years awards, there were some outstanding entries, and in our eyes, every one of you are winners for taking the time and effort to get involved. Some categories were incredibly close but of course there can only be one winner. Will it be you?
Huge thanks also go to the sponsors and judges whom without, this event couldn't have taken place. There was a real buzz surrounding the applications at the "meet and greet" with candidates last month. Friday will be the icing on the cake.
Each and every judge thoroughly enjoyed taking part but said it was no mean feat in choosing their shortlists and winners.
Now all that remains is to wait with baited breath and anticipation - less than 48 hours to go!
We look forward to updating you all on Friday at 5pm with the results, however something tells me that there will be a lot of social media posts doing there rounds before then!!!!
