The Wigan Business Awards is one of the most uplifting and positive events I have had the privilege of being part of in my entire business career! Founders Nichola and Jo have worked tirelessly to create a Business Awards with real integrity and depth that both recognises and celebrates the talent, hard work and dedication of the fantastic people of the Wigan business community. I would highly recommend getting involved whether that be by nominating a business, self nominating or attending or sponsoring the awards itself. A real boost for local businesses!

What a journey it’s been! Last year I was lucky enough to be a multi-award winner, this year nominated again, and now I’ve had the privilege of being on the other side of the table as a judge. 💛 Each step has been such a positive experience, from the confidence it gives you as a finalist, to the pride of winning, and now the joy of seeing just how much passion and talent we have across Wigan’s business community. It’s so much more than an awards night, it’s about connections, encouragement, and celebrating the graft and creativity that makes our borough shine. 🌟 If you get the chance to be part of it, I can’t recommend it enough! #WiganBusinessAwards #SupportLocal

I was invited to be a judge for the business awards and it was organised and handled incredibly well by our facilitator Phil. It was heartwarming to hear the stories of those shortlisted and how the awards gives a real platform for local businesses to shine

My flabber has been totally gasted! What an incredible evening at the Wigan Business Awards. This recognition shows we’ve got a great team working with us and as Dad, I couldn’t be prouder. As far as the night went, from the drummers opening the show to the fantastic hospitality, it was a night to remember. We’re beyond proud to take home these awards and grateful to be part of such a supportive business community!

"Winning Business of the Year, Employer of the Year, and Family Business of the Year in our 10th anniversary year was beyond anything we imagined! We won some prestigious awards last year but these, in our home town, were the icing on the cake. The Wigan Business Awards was a fantastic event even better than I imagined it would be—brilliantly organised, an incredible atmosphere, and a real celebration of what makes local businesses special. I’d like to say a huge thanks to Nic and Jo and their team for an unforgettable night!"

What an amazing event this was! Meticulously planned, perfectly structured and a thoroughly entertaining and heartwarming night. Rarely does an award ceremony demonstrate the championing and inclusivity of every single person/business in the room, but the overwhelming warmth for everyone, whether they were a nominee, winner or a supporter of a business, is all down to the heart and soul given to the organisation of the event by its organisers. Fantastic showcasing of local performers too! Wigan businesses were beautifully showcased by this event and a great night was had by all!

A fantastic event organised and run by Nichola and Jo of Launch North West. They have shown a great passion for highlighting various businesses and individuals across the borough. From nominations, impartial judging panels and presentations, through to the grand awards ceremony, everything has been handled brilliantly. The awards ceremony was a grand spectacular with drinks on arrival, official photo opportunities, various entertainment, and a lovely catered meal. It was glorious to be finalists in two categories, even more so to be winner of the Micro Business of the Year Award. We really felt like we were winners at the fancy awards ceremonies for the stars! We are eagerly looking forward to the 2025 awards and no matter those results we know that the evening will be fantastic enough to feel like winners!
