Business Awards 2025: Nominations now open

Salisbury's business leaders have launched the city's Business Excellence Awards for 2025.

Organised by Salisbury Chamber of Commerce, the event at The Stones Hotel saw organisers and past award winners officially open nominations for the eight categories at next year's event. 

Nominations can be made online by clicking here.  

Chamber Events Assistance Mark Baluch, who celebrates ten years with the Chamber this year, officially opened nominations and announced that the 2025 awards night will be on Friday 21st March at The Stones Hotel at High Post.

Encouraging entries, previous winner Molly Cooke from The Hair Extension Cave said, "The reason you should enter for these awards very simple... you have to be in it to win it! 

"After I won the Customer Experience Award last year, it has helped my business dramatically, as it is a recognised local award by recognised local companies." 

Molly who has run her Silver Street business for just over a decade added, "Not everyone wins and that's ok, I have applied for lots of awards that I didn't win and each time I would see what I could do to  improve for the next year; this also helped my business grow.

"I wish you all the best of luck".
