The recent Mayor’s Business Awards now in its 30th year, held at Kings Lynn’s Corn Exchange, gathered together the top local businesses of the area. These awards are a clear celebration of the hard work the business community does, and how hard they are working to achieve great things over the last year, particularly in the challenging environment. With over 250 guests attending, it’s certainly an event to add to your calendar.
Michael Baldwin, our President of the West Norfolk Chambers Council attended the event in support of the local business community. Michael gave this comment, ‘It was great to see so many inspiring businesses being represented at the Mayors Business Awards on Friday evening and shows the wealth of innovation and technology we have here in West Norfolk. Congratulations to all involved.’
Mayor Nick Daubney highlighted and praise the strength of the businesses and opportunities given, he said “So very much has changed in that time but what remains is the sheer level of ambition, drive, innovation and determination demonstrated by the businesses of West Norfolk.
“The environment you create, the jobs you create, the opportunities you give us all as a community, everyone here and everyone who enters these awards need to be very proud indeed.”
