Finalists for this year’s Lanarkshire Business Excellence Awards have been announced.
The ceremony, which will take place at Motherwell Concert Hall on September 2, has 10 categories, and four finalists for each category have been announced.
There was a record number of entries to the awards this year. The event aims to celebrate the success and achievements of Lanarkshire businesses and is hosted by North and South Lanarkshire Councils.
Councillor Robert Brown, chairman of community and enterprise resources at South Lanarkshire Council, said: “The huge response for entries is not only testimony to how highly regarded these awards are held within our business community, it is also a reflection on the vitality and resolution of the companies out there as they continue to pull away from the problems being faced by everyone during these problematic times.
“Both Lanarkshire councils have always been so impressed by the resolve and determination to succeed by our local businesses.
“It is the innovation and flexibility of local businesses which will lead the sustainable economic recovery we urgently need to see in Lanarkshire, having the skills to deliver in a fast changing environment. Our two councils will support local companies in every way we can.”
