At last – we reveal the finalists in the 2025 awards.
Back in December, we had to assess the risks of running these awards in the light of the extreme challenges being imposed on the economy. We decided to go ahead but it hasn’t been easy. Just like you, we understand how tough business is and value all businesses who entered, not just those who made the finals.
The awards aim to celebrate all North Devon businesses and we invite you to join us at the Awards Celebration on Friday 6 June at the Landmark Theatre, Ilfracombe whether or not you entered or are a finalist – we aim to celebrate you all!
Congratulations to the finalists below – see more details in the spring issue of Business Action magazine.
