Winners and photos from the Ribble Valley Business Awards

More than 240 people attended the Stirk House in Gisburn to find out who would win the 16 trophies at the fifth Ribble Valley Business Awards.

The awards are organised by Enterprising People, and Rob Carder told the guests: “There are 3,300 businesses in Ribble Valley. Only 157 were nominated for an award and only 40 were picked as finalists - that makes you among the top one per cent of businesses in Ribble Valley.”

Mayor of Ribble Valley Councillor Stuart Carefoot was attending his third business awards.

He told the finalists: “We don’t have all the chains of all the same shops; we have individual ideas individual shops and individual attractions.

“It makes me proud to be in front of so many people who are driving this borough forward.”

Finalists ranged from hi-tech engineering and communication companies to an artisan soap manufacturer selling across the globe and a gourmet milk company run by a candidate in the current series of The Apprentice Camilla Ainsworth.
