The Rural Business Awards are going regional for 2018
Having engaged with businesses now for three years, The Rural Business Awards have a good understanding of the remit and markets in which many of you operate. We have taken the decision that 2018 will see us take our Awards Regional. We will be running events in the North, East, Midlands, South East, South West and Wales. Our regional winners will be announced at six ceremonies around the country throughout October 2018.
Amazon will be the headline supporter of this year’s awards, with entries now open through to 31st May 2018. After a hat-trick of Rural Business Awards, 2018 will mark the Awards’ fourth year of showcasing the success of businesses across the UK’s rural economy – a segment which employs in excess of 3.4 million people in over 750,000 businesses in England alone.
Each of the category winners will then be entered into our National Final with the opportunity to be crowned National Category Winner – the best of the best in each category. The National Final will happen at a ceremony in late February 2019.
