Somerset Business Awards 2011

Firmly established as a highlight of the Somerset business calendar the Awards celebrate successful Somerset companies, and offer an excellent opportunity for all business sectors to meet, be inspired and showcase their achievements to their peers.

The Awards is organised by the Somerset Chamber of Commerce. It is supported each year by a growing number of influential Somerset business sponsors, including for the second time Albert Goodman Chartered Accountants, who were the main event sponsor and Somerset County Gazette who are the awards media partners for 2011.

Somerset Business Awards are on hand to recognise and promote the county’s talented entrepreneurs. Every year the number of high quality entrants grows as companies recognise the value of winning a Somerset Business Award. It is a mark of quality that brings prestige, motivates colleagues, and potentially boosts business.

Somerset’s top businesses and business organisations came together on Friday 21st to recognise and celebrate business success across the whole of the county at one of the most important and popular fixtures in Somerset’s business calendar – the Somerset Business Awards 2011.

Nearly 300 people from the county’s leading businesses attended the sell-out event at the Somerset County Cricket Ground to find out who had won this year’s hotly contested awards. The event organisers commented that the standard of the entries this year had been exceptional, whilst the number of companies entering was up by 50 per cent, proving that the popularity and prestige of the Somerset Business Awards continues to increase year on year.
