Every day, local businesses work tirelessly to serve our community, often without thanks and rarely expecting recognition. This is why you should nominate your favourite business for the Wigan Business Awards.
Whether it’s your favourite independent café, a family-run shop that goes the extra mile, or a business that has helped you grow—they all make a difference. These companies are vital to Wigan and Leigh’s economy.
Yet, many business owners don’t put themselves forward for awards because they don’t feel ‘worthy’—when in reality, they deserve to be celebrated.
A Small Gesture That Means So Much
Nominating a business for the Wigan Business Awards is a simple but powerful way to show appreciation.
It tells business owners that their hard work is noticed, that their contributions matter, and that their community values them.
A nomination can provide:
- A confidence boost – Many business owners don’t realise the impact they have until someone takes the time to acknowledge it.
- A morale lift for their team – Employees feel proud to be part of an organisation that is recognised for its achievements.
- A chance to grow – Winning or being shortlisted for an award can open doors to new opportunities, customers, and partnerships.
Your Nomination Can Change Someone’s Business, dare we say it can change their life?
Past nominees have spoken about how much it meant to be put forward by their customers, peers, or employees.
A nomination can give them the encouragement to keep going through tough times. It could also help them grow their business or inspire them to support others in return.
