MEN Business of the year

The North West does it right. We’re a community of entrepreneurs, fledgling start-ups and multi-million pound businesses.

As the year neared its end, it was time to recognise the best in the North West – and give out some gongs.

A finalist in the £10m – £25m category of the MEN Business of the Year Awards, our team donned their glad rags and shimmied over to Manchester’s Midland Hotel for a night of fine dining, endless champagne and a celebration of the region’s best and brightest businesses.

Hosted for the third year running by BBC news presenter, Nicholas Owen, once again we were reminded why Manchester is at the heart of our business. The diversity, the innovation and the vivacity of the North West business community.

Whilst we didn’t walk away with an award – the recognition and praise from our peers about the ripples we’ve made in retail – was the real icing on the cake.
