The deadline to nominate a South Norfolk business for an awards ceremony at Dunston Hall is closing in.
South Norfolk Council's new business awards will take place on February 5 at a black tie ceremony, with nominations closing on December 31.
The awards celebrate the economic success of South Norfolk, from multi-national organisations, cutting edge technology and bio-science companies and a wide range of independent shops and traders.
SNC's deputy leader, Michael Edney, said: 'We've had a fantastic response from both our businesses, nominating themselves for an award, and from our residents who have been nominating their favourite retailer.'
He added: 'We are proud of the vibrancy of our local economy. We work hard to encourage inward investment into both our district and the region and support all sizes of business start-ups. These awards give us the chance to celebrate that vibrancy and the enormous contribution that business makes to our district.'
Businesses can now nominate themselves for an award in any of the nine categories and at the same time residents can support their favourite business by nominating them as South Norfolk Retailer of the Year.
Criteria and how to nominate can be found by visiting www.south-norfolk.gov.uk/businessawards
Retailers can request an information pack by emailing awards@s-norfolk.gov.uk
