We’re thrilled to announce that Fruity Llama has been named a finalist in two highly coveted categories at the Red Rose Awards 2025 – the Digital Award and the Design Award.

This achievement highlights our commitment to delivering exceptional website design and digital marketing solutions for businesses across Lancashire while celebrating the creativity and innovation of our team.

A Delighted Digital Marketing Team

Our mission is to transform businesses with tailored strategies and forward-thinking solutions. Being recognised in two key categories this year reaffirms our dedication to providing top-tier web design and performance marketing services. Here’s a closer look at the awards we’ve been nominated for:

The Digital Award acknowledges organisations and professionals in the digital sector that lead with innovation, whether through digital transformation, cutting-edge technology, or impactful marketing strategies. This category highlights excellence in strategic planning, execution, and adaptability.

The Design Award, on the other hand, celebrates creativity and ingenuity in areas such as graphic design, branding, PR, marketing, video production, and photography. It honours work that not only meets but exceeds client expectations while showcasing strategic and impactful outcomes.

We are especially delighted to have been shortlisted for the Design Award for the second year running, alongside our debut as finalists for the Digital Award.

Expanding into performance marketing over the past year, including services such as Google Ads and Facebook/Instagram advertising, has allowed us to build on our established success as a web design team. This diversification has enabled us to deliver even greater value to our clients, and this recognition speaks volumes about our progress.

Being named finalists in two Red Rose Award categories reflects our growth and unwavering commitment to producing innovative and impactful work for our clients in Lancashire.

What are the Red Rose Awards?

The Red Rose Awards are one of Lancashire’s most distinguished accolades, celebrating the region’s thriving business community and the exceptional talent that drives it forward.

Organised annually by Lancashire Business View, the awards honour businesses across diverse industries, showcasing their hard work, innovation, and contribution to the local economy.

The awards feature a rigorous judging process, including validation, expert panel assessments, and in-person interviews, making it a significant achievement to reach the finalist stage. Winners are unveiled at a dazzling ceremony at the iconic Winter Gardens in Blackpool, attended by industry leaders and peers.

What Makes This Recognition Special? 

Reaching the finals of the Red Rose Awards is no small feat. The stringent judging process involves multiple stages, including validation, expert panel assessments, and in-person interviews. Fruity Llama is proud to be among the final six businesses in both the Digital and Design categories, a testament to the outstanding quality of our work and the trust our clients place in us.

How Are the Winners Chosen?

As part of this journey, all finalists will attend judging Interview Training with Sales Geek in January.  Followed by In-person interviews in early February, where judges will evaluate each finalist before making their final decisions.

The winners will remain top secret until the grand awards ceremony in March later this year. It promises to be an unforgettable night celebrating the best of Lancashire’s business community.
