Ballymena Business Awards are back
This is the 14th year of the awards which are organised annually by Ballymena Borough Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Mid and East Antrim Borough Council is the principal sponsor for this year’s awards.
Chamber President Ronan McCann said: “These awards help to celebrate the huge contribution made by our business community. The economic environment has been very tough in the last year, and these awards show the commitment of individuals and the business excellence that exists in the Borough.

“The judging this year will again be carried out by Insight Mystery Shopping – it is entirely independent of Chamber thereby ensuring the integrity of the awards.
Mayor of Mid and East Antrim Borough Council, Councillor Audrey Wales MBE said: “In this the 14th year of the awards we will once again be paying tribute to the entrepreneurship and excellence across the range of businesses in the Ballymena area. The Ballymena Business Excellence Awards continue the theme of building towards the future. They recognise, reward and promote those businesses throughout the Ballymena area who consistently strive to better their product, service, facility, workplace and involvement in the community. Ballymena is a great place to do business and we are proud to be home to some great globally recognised organisations and extremely successful home grown ones.” Awards brochures are now being distributed around the Ballymena area or please visit www.ballymenachamber.co.uk where you can view the brochure and download an entry form.
