Businesses across Lancashire are being called on to enter the Red Rose Awards, which will crown the best of the best of the county’s firms.

Last year’s event, which was organised by Lancashire Business View magazine, attracted an audience of more than 1,100 for the celebration at Blackpool’s Winter Gardens – setting a record for the biggest indoor dinner ever held in the county.

At the launch event, held at Hoghton Tower, Richard Slater, publisher of Lancashire Business View said: “First and foremost the Red Rose Awards are about giving Lancashire business the opportunity to show how great it is; how deep its commercial excellence runs.

“We know the business community love participating in the awards – if you experience the Red Rose Awards either by entering, judging, sponsoring or attending on the night, we ask that you encourage your clients, suppliers and associates to enter!

Gavin Wright, CEO at Forbes, said: “The Red Rose Awards continues to be the premier business event in the county and the first date to put in your diary! It’s a privilege to be able to support an event which showcases the successes of so many businesses in Lancashire.

John Stanworth, corporate director at Barclays in Lancashire, commented: “Barclays was delighted to become a headline sponsor of the Red Rose Awards in 2014.

“The awards recognise firms and individuals that are achieving their aspirations and goals and that are contributing to the overall success of the region.

Other sponsors confirmed to date include 2BR/The Bee, Ascentis, BAE Systems, Baker Tilly, Bizspace, Boost Business Lancashire, Businesswise Solutions, Hyndburn Business and Enterprise Trust, Cassons, Federation of Small Businesses, Laura Hartley Recruitment, Leonard Dews, Napthens Solictors, Northcote at the Rovers, Peter Scott Printers, Preston’s College, Slatescape, UK Trade and Investment and the WEC Group.
