Former finalists said they increased their business and received acknowledgement and respect from their customer base for their achievement.

We can all be sure the benefits and rewards of participating are also great, with the valuable input from independent assessors (the judges) providing instant feedback on areas for improvement. If you've never considered entering, now might be a good time to start."
