Firms from Burnham and Highbridge area make shortlist for 2024 Somerset Business Awards

-

The shortlist has been announced for the Somerset Business Awards 2024 with  several companies from the Burnham-On-Sea and Highbridge area vying for the honours.

Judges faced a tough time whittling down the huge number of entries for the 2024 awards, which are run annually by Somerset Chamber of Commerce.

The 2024 shortlisted nominees come from all corners of the county, including from our area.

This year is the 19th anniversary of the awards, which are again supported by main sponsor Albert Goodman. The grand final will be held at the Winter Gardens Pavilion, in Weston-super-Mare, on March 22nd, 2024.

The finalists will be announced at the beginning of February, following visits by the judges.

Somerset Chamber Chief Executive, Emma Rawlings, pictured with Mike Cahill from main sponsor Albert Goodman, says: “It was great to see so many entries from both Chamber members and non-members from all corners of the county, representing a wide range of sectors and industries.”

“In fact, there were so many high-quality entries this year, some of the categories have a record number of shortlisted entrants. I am really looking forward to the final as it always a great opportunity to celebrate the successes and achievements of Somerset’s many incredible businesses and organisations.”
