Businesses across the region have one final opportunity to put forward nominations for local enterprises they wish to recognise.

Entries for the 2026 programme will close this Friday. The celebratory gathering is set to take place on Thursday, July 9, at the Bradford Live venue.

A spokesperson for the newspaper said the passion, ambition, hard work and skill required to run a successful company all deserve recognition. They added that higher entry numbers help ensure the judges can identify the strongest candidates for each category.

The accolades shine a spotlight on commercial success throughout the district and aim to celebrate firms and individuals who strengthen the local economy while creating positive impact within their communities.

The range of categories on offer includes SME Business of the Year, Employer of the Year, Innovation Award, Sustainability Award, Manufacturer of the Year, and the newly introduced Business in the Community Award.

Getting involved is straightforward, with entries accepted through the online portal or by scanning the code printed in the newspaper.
