Andrew Baggott, Managing partner of Clarke Nicklin, commented “It’s been eight years that I have been reviewing entries into the Awards. When making the decision to set up the Awards all that time ago, I fully expected it to identify the excellent businesses we have here in Stockport, and eight years on I am still surprised and delighted at the vibrancy, variety and success we have in our borough. This means us judges are faced with difficult decisions every year; but that is part of what makes the Awards so interesting and exciting.”
Once the shortlist has been announced tickets will be available to purchase from organisers Clarke Nicklin.
