The search is on for the best local businesses as voted by you - their customers. The Business of the Year 2016 campaign runs until 31st January when thebestof Guernsey will unveil those local businesses that have been voted in the top 10 in Guernsey AND the top five in their category nationally.
Find out how you could win cash prizes to spend with your favourite local business by leaving a review.
Back for its 7th Year, thebestof annual awards have been rebranded as the Business of the Year Awards 2016 but still retain the primary objective of finding local and national business stars through the collection of real and validated reviews. These prestigious awards highlight just how appreciated and respected some of our great island businesses really are.
All you have to do is give a review to one of this year's shortlisted businesses. All reviews will be entered into a draw to win cash prizes throughout the campaign which ends on 31st January. To be eligible, all reviews must be validated via an email receipt so please check your inbox for a validation email from thebestof.
The business with the most validated reviews by 31st January 2016 will be crowned 'Guernsey Business of the Year 2016'. However, as this is a nationwide campaign across thebestof network, shortlisted businesses also have the opportunity to compete in their categories nationally and achieve the coveted title of 'Britain's Business of the Year in Category'. Last year Guernsey did exceptionally well with nine local businesses WINNING their category nationally and 10 placing in the top 100 of ALL businesses in the British Isles.
To qualify for entry into this year's Business of the Year Awards, businesses had to gain a minimum of 12 validated reviews over the past year. Again, Guernsey has done itself proud with 30 businesses qualifying.
