IT’S time to celebrate local business with the People’s Choice Best of Redlands Coast Awards.
Nominations are now open, giving local businesses the opportunity to step forward and let their customers show their support.
The People’s Choice Awards are exactly that – decided by the people.
They recognise the businesses locals genuinely value, support and keep coming back to.
If you’ve built strong relationships with your customers, this is where it counts.
As Awards Committee member Ally Grantham said: “The People’s Choice Awards are all about celebrating the businesses our community genuinely value and support.
“It’s a powerful reminder that strong customer relationships are at the heart of every successful business.
“I encourage all local businesses to get involved and let the Redlands community show their appreciation for all their hard work.”
The Best of Redlands Coast category is open to all businesses and recognises those making a real impact locally.
Whether you are small, growing or well established, it is a chance to be seen and supported by your community.
Retail, fashion and specialty businesses are also in focus, celebrating those bringing creativity, personality and unique offerings to the local shopping scene.
From boutiques to homewares and niche stores, these businesses help shape the character of the Redlands Coast.
Customer service is another key category, open to all industries and recognising those who consistently go the extra mile.
It highlights the businesses that build trust, deliver great experiences and create lasting relationships.
